Is it possible to run a firewall with Webroot


Userlevel 5
I have been playing around with Glasswire on a virtual machine and love the features (https://www.glasswire.com/)
 
Is it possible to use Glasswire and Secure Anywhere Complete or will they fight each other for control of Windows Firewall?
 
Thanks for any help :)

Hi kliebor
 
I run WSA with Windows Firewall enabled AND Glasswire, and I have experienced absolutely no conflicts or unexpected activities/clashes re. any of them. They all play well with each other.
 
Do note that both WSA's outbound firewall component & Glasswire will communicate with the Windows Firewall via prescribed channels and that takes care of any potential conflicts, plus the fact also that WSA is designed to be compliant/play nicely with other security solutions and so will most likely cede control to Glasswire, only stepping in if it needs to.

I have not viewed B5 for quite a while and must really schedule some time to get a refresh/reboot on the series. ;)
