well, I see you're into your own thing
so i'll let you live in your ignorance. You apprently have your blinders on in this aspect. If MS firewall was anything special and started taking marketshare from BlackIce, ZoneAlarm or anything like that the way this AV could, it would have a suit slapped onto it. MS Firewall is junk in many peoples eyes, hell even my father who knows only how to break a PC saw it was junk and went with another firewall. AV companies like Symantec wont like bundled software simply due to the fact that this is what they make their money with. If bundled on the OS, it's called unfair practice, read up on that, you'll get it(maybe). I wont reply to another comment by you because you're apparently only seeing what you want to see and not paying attention to anyone ewho is trying to explain it to you. You might wish to take a look at the antitrust filings and see what I, along with others, are trying to get into your head. Look at why netscape brought a suit against them, you'll see my son, I have faith in you.
