					| Maybe when I start to dual-boot in Win7 (when the final release is out), I can get rid of 3rd party antiviruses/firewalls (I use ESET now)
 I'll just use Windows Defender and regularly do scans with OneCare.
 
 Off-topic : Is the Win7 firewall like 3rd party solutions ? Do I create rules on-the-fly ?  Is it safe ?  I don't want anything connecting anywhere unless I specifically allow it.

					| The Windows firewall is safe. It has been safe since XPSP2. I Vista, and to a much larger extent, Win7, the firewall is even better, with many more options.  |  |
