What Dumb Firewalls don’t do

a)They don’t monitor your configuration files

b)They don’t monitor your registry

c)They don’t monitor your startup folders

d)They don’t scan for or remove Trojans

e)They don’t provide a list of socket connections

f)They don’t do what a real firewall does, keep out unwanted products in an intelligent manner and not on a per application basis.

Real protection will only come from an official antivirus program which provides a multitude of useful protection, performs regular scans on your disk to check up on any missed viruses, and watches over your entire system.
