    Using Win xp home on a 2.8/256 celeron, I installed windows service pack 2 went and turned on windows firewall, but it keeps changing back to windows firewall off! I have Zone Alarm firewall as well as a router firewall so I dont know if I need win firewall even to be on?
    Thanks

    You should definitely turn OFF the Windows Firewall as it may conflict with ZA. Leave the other two - there is no problem running a software firewall with your router firewall.
