Key Excerpt:

"Despite its power, the weakest link in desktop Windows security is, in fact, the software firewall. Although there have been advances and improvements over the years, there’s still a significant hurdle: The knowledge needed to operate software firewalls properly is too complex. It’s the ongoing string of decisions that users are asked to make, especially during the first few weeks and months after installation, that are the problem."
