compatibility issues made it necessary to switch from zone alarm to kerio personal. i was told that it is complicated.
my greatest fear is that i have already allowed a hacker in. would any of you experienced kerio personal firewall users guide me thru the steps of shutting down traffic, allowing necessary traffic passage, and researching the connections i have already allowed.
when i get a message like this, "incoming alert- a computer at 34.737.272.6 is attempting to gain access to your computer" how do i know if this is a good guy or a bad guy. any programs that i can use to find out who this IP address is? thanks, Ed James

I use windows firewall ,but here is a site to search ip address although it shows noting for the one you posted .
