you can download programs to stop pop-ups

I'm still able to play almost all the games online, because my grandma's comp just haas Nortin using the firewall. And I just tell it to let the program go online. Unless a game is picky, then I have to shut it off. But I'm on modem, so the chance of a hacker wanting in is slim to none.

incorrect.

if you have a firewall on you can play games perfectly fine online.
You cant host online games tho. However if you have a good firewall. you can find the port the game runs on and allow that port to come thro and you can host online games as well.

but a firewall wont stop you from playin online games.
