What part do you think is untrue?
That that was what I was trying to say? Or that ZAP (for example) is
better than WindowsXP fw for protecting a users pc IN THE REAL WORLD?
If you are dissing ZAP - with no proof - they may be calling their lawyers

If you mean that the Windows fw _does_ protect from some things, well,
yes, but the point here is that others do that and more.
