We have AVG free addition for a firewall now. Now that we have high speed do we need to do anything else or is that still ok. I wondered if I needed something else since I am no longer using dial up.

A connection to the internet is a conection to the internet, as far as a virus is concerned. You're logged on either by dialing up or by being part of a network all the time, you're still logged on.

Use the firewall software you trust. If there's a virus that makes better use of high speed for data transfer, it would have gone onto your computer no matter what connection, and your firewall software will either protect it or it won't. If you trust it, use it.


But, I could be wrong...
