I am using Zone Alarm and so far I'm happy with it, have not tried any other type though hence I cannot make any comparison but I am still open with other type though
Paying for the firewall again the antivirus is a big problem. Zone Alarm is suposed to be good enough. Even the free version. And soon I am going to get PC-Cillin internet security
Nice Question
I like work With ZoneAlarm 5.5.062 It Has Blue Skin And Its Very Nice Zone Alarm has This option for block Hackers for attack your PS 1 -Firewall 2 -Program Control (Cool) 3 -antivirus monitoring 4 -Email protection 5 - ID Lock 6 - Alert & Log Zone Alarm Can Block Internet Program And this option can block Trojans and Worms I Think zone Alarm is best (FW)
zone alarm is THE most crappiest piece of software you can ever use. together with the illusion of being the easiest to use, it gives you the least protection and conflicts with a plethora of other programs.
Old versions of Kerio were some of the best ever created. I didn't like the newer versions so I switched over to Tiny. Outpost firewall also seems pretty good, but was very resource hungry back when I used it. I may try it again to see if they have fixed that.
For some strange reason i have a lot of firewalls. But one I'll say i use is sygate personal firewall. It's free and i might as well try it and its...ok. Not the best but its free. I use some others but Sygate personal firewall is the one i usually use. It also gets pretty annoying at times asking if access should be granted to your computer. But it also has a feature where you can allow all programs trying to access your computer.
Nortons Internet Security, Mcaffe Firewll, and Windows XP's built-in firewall. However my favorite iss Norton's Internet Security, I games off it perfectly safely, and easily without adjusting any settings, it is very good, it also has alot of other things like pop-up and spam blockers... .
i use the one that's built in with microsoft, so i don't really know which one that is. it appears not to work well at all. i've got all kinds of crap installed on my computer from the internet - one of which uses like 100% of my processor until i kill it. so i think i should look into something other than the microsoft one. it should prevent all that adware from being installed, i think!!
I've never had a firewall before. I am thinking of trying out Zone Alert. Been hearing good stuff about it. I don't know what exactly is suppose to do though, does it hide your IP from people who ping you or limit your upload speed?
I use a windows built-in firewall, I can't really be asked to get a newer firewall. I could get a new one but then again, windows firewall has always been loyal to me and always done it's job so I'll keep it.
I use the one built into my SMC router. works much better, none of those prompt's/popups asking to allow stuff. you just set the ports and connection type for what your gonna use once, and your good.
because having the computer run its own protection isn't a smart idea, you could get a virus/trojan that would disable the software firewall and still show on the screen that it was doing its job.

I currently use norton personal firewall, I used to use zonealarm but updaiting it every few weeks got to be a pain.
ZoneAlarm is the best there is, but blackIce it's the second best, wich by the way, it's not there.

Meh, if it was up to me I'd still be using Zone Alarm, but my mom installed Norton on my computer, which cost like 60-80 dollars so no use trying to talk her into removing it, plus she loooves having parental controls..yeah.
But eh, its not THAT bad, but the stupid annoying auto scans are...annoying, and lag my computer, but if I turn them off my mom gets pissed..so yeah.
