    Apologies for what is alomost certainly another very basic question. I have Sony laptop equipped with Windows Vista. Should this device have a decent firewall or do I need extra security? Many thanks.

    Welcome to Major Geeks.
    Vista firewall is supposed to be better than previous versions.
    You will still need some antispyware programs and a good antivirus program.
