I downloaded and installed this pre-release build of Avast Internet Security which has its own firewall, but when I installed it, it didn't turn off Windows Firewall. I'm not sure what previous releases have done in this respect.
I'm Windows 7 Pro 32-bit.
When I turn off Windows Firewall, Windows gives its usual dire warnings and action center messages like it doesn't recognize Avast's firewall being on (which it is).
1) Is Windows Firewall supposed to be ON or OFF when using Avast Internet Security?
2) If it is supposed to be OFF, why is Windows not recognizing Avast's firewall?
