Firewall is better in Vista
And the fireWall while being better than nothing. only blocks incoming traffic it does not prevent unkown Trogens or viruses from contacting the outside world...

I believe the Vista firewall has the ability to block outgoing traffic although that capability will be disabled by default.

No I do not trust My computers saftey to Microsoft.

Let me see if I understand this correctly: you will install an entire Microsoft OS on your computer but you refuse to use their firewall because you don't trust Microsoft on your computer? Can you explain that one to us?
