    That's very odd. I have used Sygate in the past and never had it do anything like that...

    I dont use a firewall. Well there is one on my router but its not a great one or anything but blocks **** i dont want it to. Before i had it i never used one. I never had any problem. Its not like your going to get hacked by some guy that doesnt know you. People blow up the whole hacking thing way way too much. I know many people that dont use em and dont have any problems yet people are scared shitless that if they dont have one theyll get hacked.

    firewall

    Sygate does not do that, I think it was something else, not the fire wall software. I been using sygate for a few years and I have never sen something like that.

    That is very odd! Never had problems like that with that firewall. I don't even have a firewall on my computer right now. I really haven't found a need for one. If you're careful, there shouldn't be any problems.
