Since getting ADSL recently I've been doing a lot more gaming online. Mostly I continue to run NIS and NAV in the background although this can sometimes break into gameplay when the gameserver requests access to my computer.
Obviously the game server needs to send information to me and I to it so am I wrong to be a little worried about granting permission for the server to access my computer? Would I be able to play if I denied it access!!
Also if I were to disable the firewall whilst gaming would I still be susceptible to attack from other sources??
