Firewall management

nokky

I have just installed Sophos on Snow Leopard. Before having any anti-virus software installed, I had the native Mac OS firewall enabled under System Preferences. After installing Sophos, should I disable the built-in Mac firewall ? Thanks.

    I'd imagine either ethernet or wireless wouldn't make any difference. I'd give VZ a call to find out if they're still doing that in the latest firmware. But I'm guessing they are, in order to apply firmware updates automatically and do other admin stuff.

    I'd try to get someone higher level, as the reps at the lower level often don't know very much. Even a higher level rep had to call Actiontec to confirm that the backdoor couldn't be removed.
