Internet users face a lot of problems in getting rid of this generic problem. There are a lot of viruses containing sites, which send viruses whenever they are visited.

Firewall is the basic way of protection, as it is the only way of connectivity between the site and network, and there is no bypass upon firewall whether in wireless or dial up connection. A firewall provides access control by restricting which messages it will relay between the site and the rest of the network, forwards the messages that are allowed and filters those which are disallowed.

In effect, a firewall divides a network in to a more trusted zone internal to the firewall, and a less trusted zone external to the firewall. It is useful, if you do not want external users to access a particular host or service within your site. A firewall may also impose restrictions on outgoing traffic to prevent certain attacks and to limit losses.

Modern firewalls also understand and filter based on many specific application level protocols such as HTTP, Telnet, or FTP. They use information specific to that protocol such as URL’s in the case of HTTP, to decide whether to discard a message.
