I'm not sure if this is normal behaviour, but thought I'd ask on here to check...
I just installed Avast Internet Security recently and noticed that although the Avast Firewall was running, Windows Firewall hadn't been disabled.
So, I went ahead and disabled Windows firewall, thinking the Avast Firewall would probably prefer to be the only firewall running on my system.
However, as soon as I did that, the Windows 8 Action Centre popped up reporting that no Firewall was detected/running.
I've re-enabled the Windows Firewall again and the system is "happy as Larry" again, but just wondered whether I should be running Windows FW and Avast FW at the same time?
Is there a specific reason that the Avast FW is not detected by Windows?
I'm running Windows 8 with all latest updates...
Cheers,
Colin
