Unleash7 - Everything PC... Made Simple!

A feature in Windows 7 is the implementation of Windows Defender, which can become a hassle if you already have a decent anti-virus to handle all your virus and spyware needs. This significantly slows down your computer by utilizes many of your system's resources to power on Windows Defender.

Windows Firewall, on the other hand, has never been much of use for me due to the the many anti-viruses out there that feature a firewall in their software. We recommend disabling these features to improve your system response time and your online gaming experience (Firewall interferes with the servers you use to connect to when you're playing online). This tweak is significant for gamers and normal PC users.
