Personal Firewall

In layman terms, Firewall is just a door of an apartment to protect against intruders from getting into the apartment without acknowledging the owner. Whenever you are connected to the internet via any kinds of media - dialup, broadband or wireless, you are exposed to risks of being attacked by hackers. The results of attacks may be very harmfully as they may introduce virus to your computer, sending out spam to users in your e-mail address book, disable the operating system, copy private information like passwords from your hard disk or to an extreme delete all files in your hard disk.
