Is it possible for windows 7 firewall as well as Avast firewall to co-exist?

I have started having a problem with my wireless router connecting to the internet since Wednesday 122612. When I go into troubleshoot about connections, it shows window firewall as protection not Avast. I thought Avast automatically turned off other firewalls. I know that this may not be the place for this but I need help. I have called my internet provider Comcast/Xfinity who was not help at all.

Operating system is windows 7 64 bytes avast internet security v: 7.0.1474 Firefox 17.0.1

Yes the avast firewall is able to co-exist with the windows firewall so you can run both or you can also disable the windows one if you wish.

Thank you.

Your welcome :slight_smile:

I saw official post from avast! to disable Windows firewall prior to installing avast!, however, nobody does it, and it always works. There might be some latency due to more than 1 firewall though. I am running both!
