Comodo Firewall Pro, excellent product.
Also, please check the Sticky at the top of this subforum, and MatouSec.

I would avoid ZoneAlarm and similar ZoneLab products like they are the plague. Numerous users have countless issues, Internet slowdowns and much more.

I too recommend Comodo.

agreed, zonealarm is AWFUL.

ive been recently looking into a good firewall myself, and one that keeps popping up is "Jetico".

firewallleaktester.com actually gave it an award for best firewall, as have numerous others.

i highly recommend looking jetico up, but to be fair, while ive heard EXCELLENT reviews of commodo, i have yet to use it myself.

good luck to you!
