Yes, you can use tools with the Win 7 firewall to make it 2-way. I used the Windows Firewall Notifier utility for just that and it worked very well but gave alerts for every connection attempt which got annoying and sometimes troublesome. I was referring to the default state of the Windows firewall which is what most people will use. I have never and will never overclock anything so that’s not an issue. You can have problems when you mix and match components of your security between different vendors which is why I always use the full package from anyone. However, vendors know that people will mix and match and it is their responsibility to resolve conflicts arising from such activities as much as they can.
