Firewall Disappeared
I received a notice of 54 "serious" incoming ICMP intrusions, then shortly thereafter, my Firestarter just disappeared. I've tried several times to start it back up, and it asks me for my password, then nothing. I've tried uninstalling it, then reinstalling, but still nothing. I'm pretty worried. I had turned off the X-Server since I don't want anyone in my computer. I noticed that there are scripts running every time I turn my computer off that I didn't put there. The main reason I'm switching to Linux is that I heard it was safer from hackers. Is that information wrong? I'd really appreciate any help you can give. (A few days ago, the updater gave a warning about an unauthorized update, I tried to keep it from downloading, but it ended up getting past my denial.)
Thanks,
Scott Price
