I noticed after installing just the Linksys router, and then I decided to reload ZoneAlarm with it displaying alerts of intrusions. ZoneAlarm would display hits (not nearly as much). ALso, the hardware router does not protect you from outbound hits. Meaning if you install a program it will be able to get outside of your hardware router without your knowledge. Unless of course you have ZoneAlarm which will detect the nasty little spyware that decides to send information back home about your computer. |
