I figured some Mac users would get a kick out of this. I love how Microsoft still cant get the firewall/security thing right, while apple did it right a while ago!

Simply the fact that Windows Firewall can be turned off by another application is enough to tell me Microsoft has goofed again." PCWorld also has a story about the new firewall capability.
