Has anyone got any suggestions for firewalls to test in a review we will be doing shortly?
we would like to cover the most popular ones, especially ones which are free for home use. all must work on XP. a few retail ones would b an idea too to get a good spread.

thanks

Thats why you send an e-mail to companies telling them about MSFN and request to review their harware in detail

Everyone on the planet reviews the usual firewalls, ZA, BID, TPF, NPF but you might want to look at some of the more esoteric among the candidates. I know where you can get them all in one place. You can e-mail me for the info. Admins only.
