I have read online that Avast! Internet security (what I’m using, paid version) supports windows 7 firewall. But is this the case with Windows 8.1? I have W8.1 Pro.
Good catch, schmidthouse. I must have read it wrong. I don’t use avast’s firewall and Windows firewall together. Unfortunately, when I do install Avast Internet Security it doesn’t disable the Windows firewall. I have had to manually turn the Windows firewall off each time so don’t forget to check this.
