Why doesn't the XP firewall warn the user when it's connecting to Microsoft's site? Fuck that
Also: Ubuntu doesn't have all the published remote exploits that WinXP has had.
Installing a firewall on Ubuntu is easy and free, and better yet, I can actually trust it because it's open source. Is the WindowsXP Firewall open source? No? Then I can't trust it. Is Zone Alarm open source? No? Then I can't trust that either.
