What FIREWALL Are You Using?
#11
Tested many and for my purpose i like zonealarm. And ironically i have a full account but prefer the free version.
Outbound activity is all i care about and zonealarm free deals with that just fine.
I do however run other tools but this is a firewall thread so i will keep on topic.

Firewalls are less important than they used to be. Most routers have firewalls. People use to connect directly to a modem but now everyone has a small home network. Individual computer firewalls are more of a hassle than anything else.

I have a AT&T router. It has great firewall protection ebcuase well I tured a few things on on it nd etc. It stops most viruses. I can still run one on it if it get's by. 95% of the time they don't get by.

Not using one at the moment except for my router's default.
