I just got to thinking and was wondering what av and firewall dill gates uses or if he even uses a pc at all (maybe he switched to mac)! Anyone with some knowledge as to what mr. gate's situation is would make me a very happy person.
thanks

Probably windows firewall

I wouldn't be supprised if that were the case, but I am pretty sure he'd probably use ISA Server for a firewall or firewalls, however chosen to be setup.
I'd either use that or cisco equipment if I were him.
It would be anyones guess for which antivirus he favors.

I could see him with a massive hardware firewall, but not software anti-virus.

Hopefully he knows enough to use something besides Internet Explorer.

i dont think BG have time to play with computers, with all the money his making there is no way waste time in front of the computer.

Yeah, hes probably is sick of them by the time he gets off work.

However I am pretty sure he's got something advanced setup with ISA Server 2004. It's like a hardware firewall and can even be used on a system directly if desired. It's pretty advanced and a great firewall, even if it is a microsoft product.

What Is ISA Server 2004?

Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration (ISA) Server 2004 is the advanced stateful packet and application-layer inspection firewall, virtual private network (VPN), and Web cache solution that enables enterprise customers to easily maximize existing information technology (IT) investments by improving network security and performance. ISA Server 2004 is available in two versions: standard edition and enterprise edition. Information included in this product overview includes features and capabilities in both versions, unless otherwise specified.

ISA Server 2004 provides advanced protection, ease of use, and fast, secure access for all types of networks. ISA Server is particularly well suited for protecting large enterprise network configurations requiring multiple firewall arrays in disparate locations that are running Microsoft client and server applications, such as Microsoft Office, Office Outlook Web Access 2003, Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003, Internet Information Services (IIS), Routing and Remote Access, Active Directory directory service, and many other Microsoft applications, servers, and services.

ISA Server contains a full featured, application-layer aware firewall that helps protect organizations of all sizes from attack by both external and internal threats. ISA Server performs deep inspection of Internet protocols such as Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), which enables it to detect many threats that traditional firewalls cannot detect. The integrated firewall and VPN architecture of ISA Server support stateful filtering and inspection of all VPN traffic. The firewall also provides VPN client inspection for Microsoft Windows Server 2003-based quarantine solutions, helping to protect networks from attacks that enter through a VPN connection. In addition, a completely new user interface, wizards, templates, and a host of management tools help administrators avoid common security configuration errors.

I wasnt planning on doing it, just dreaming about it. I was thinking if someone did it they could leave him some suggestions on how to make vista not suck balls.
