Windows Vista Stock Firewall

[DarkFuds]

How secure is the windows vista stock firewall? Am I better off installing comodo or another free firewall over the stock vista firewall?

Thanks

From what I've read. Windows Defender is very good. Plus the prompt for installing applications is also a major plus as well. But a firewall is only as good as the person who wields it.


As my OS Concepts professor had once told me, "There is no patch for human stupidity"

I am wondering too. In XP the firewall only works at layer 3. I wonder if they added layer 2 support for vista.
