Does Avast Free Antivirus Hold A Free Firewall?

By admin Posted in: Uncategorized

Rogers online protection is having problems on my pc so for now I’m using avast, but I want to know does avast (FREE) have a free firewall? I assumed the real time shield was a firewall but the website says here ( http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#tab2 ) that…
Technologies that are not included in avast! free antivirus
Silent Firewall
The firewall enables you to control incoming and outgoing traffic from your computer. Protection is based on heuristic and behavioral analysis, and a white list of known safe applications. There are three network settings which can be changed depending on the type of connection.
if it isn’t a firewall can you suggest a free firewall and antivirus (preferably all in one) for me to download while I wait for Rogers to fix this problem?

    The free edition of Avast is just an antivirus. It doesn’t include any firewall feature. If you want an exellent firewall software, here:
    Comodo Free Personal Firewallhttp://www.comodo.com/home/internet-secu…
    It got the highest rating in this review:http://www.matousec.com/projects/proacti…

    Avast free does NOT include a firewall.
    Just enable your built-in Windows firewall and you should be fine.

    Comodo has a free firewall that is VERY highly regarded if you want a very secure firewall
