Application Boot Order; Changable?

[Leinado]

I'm running windows 98.

I have DSL with a firewall, but the firewall loads last. Which, to me, leaves the comp vunerable while booting.

I would like to move my firewall up to the front of the boot order. Possible? And how?

ok, in win98 you should be able to do it by going through system information found under system tools, but i dont see why it is a huge deal for you, first off anyone that wants to hack you bad enough to wait for just the right moment between loading applications must really want something off of your hdd, and if they wanted it that bad they could surely get past your firewall, secondly, odds of anyone knowing when you are booting up, almost zip- so basically you really dont have anything to worry about at all.
Just my 2 cents

You can setup Sygate Personal Firewall to not allow a network connection until it's (Sygate) started.
