Hi

I am wondering if there is a firewall that coexists with Cygwin well.
IIRC, there were complaints about Norton software and about some other
firewalls too. What would you recommend me?

I ask because I've never had to use firewall before (my home box is behind
NAT in a secure network) and I have no experience with Windows firewalls.
I've just bought a laptop and a firewall seems to be necessary in this
case.

Regards
Krzysztof Duleba
