You say that because you can pay for an unlimited data plan :)

No, I say that because the Windows firewall just does it's job, never seems to have a conflict unlike
ZA, Commodo and quite a few other third party firewalls.
The Windows Firewall is also very easy to use. Since I deal with a great deal of non-tech people,
I look for the simple solutions in life. :)

Oh, sorry.

Me too, just that this particular feature was never included into Avast Firewall...

I wonder how many will fall for this. ???
"No Toolbars" but, online back up and "Free" credit monitoring." WOW
Fall for it? I read the whole review and it seems pretty good and safe to me. That credit monitoring is interesting. Having said that, I too am sticking with Windows Firewall.

Most of these pictures are 360 Panoramas so not recommended for those with
slow internet access. :)

Google protecting you.

I had just upgraded on of my computers to Avast InternetSecurity and used the Avast SafeZone.
I opened the Browser within SafeZone which triggered this notice.
Google also complained about the fact that this browser in SafeZone was an old version and need to be updated. :)

For some reason I can't view it - I just get black boxes where the videos should be - but if your point is what are they doing on a funtoyzcollector.net is beyond me. Clicking one of the blocks I get an error.

I just though it a little strange that it has a 3rd party link to yandex.ru

Must be one of your blockers. :)

Clicking on the link in Chrome gets the following result:

DavidR, RequestPolicy may be the problem.  I don't have it in this Firefox profile, and the page graphics load fine.
