What Is Windows Firewall? How can an operating system have firewall,anyway?Isn’t a firewall a box with blinking lights and a bunch of cables coming out of it? The answer is that the term firewall refers to any of a number of ways to shield a computer network from other networks,networks rife with untrustworthy people—you know,networks like the Internet.Let’s dig down a bit further,however,and start with a look at what a firewall is,basically. What Firewalls Do With the advent of the Lndustrial Revolution,people started building things driven by steam power,such as locomotives,ships,and the like. Creating steam required fire,and fire’s a scary thing,at least when it gets out of hand.To protect against fire-related problems,those locomotives,ships,and the like were designed so that a thick,sturdy, nearly fireproof wall existed between wherever the fire was kept—usually a boiler—and the rest of the vehicle.That way,if something caught fire in the boiler’s compartment,then the onboard engineers would have a bit more time to put out the fire without having to worry about the fire immediately spreading to the rest of the craft.Later on,we started using i
