I am using Ashampoo Firewall Free with Windows 2000 Pro. I does the trick and does not eat resouces. Its eating around 8 MB RAM now

COMODO works fine for my rig... light & free...

 

[Choto Cheeta]

I am happy with what came with Kapersky Internet Security

 

[sakumar79]

@Choto Cheeta, read the post request - he is asking for free personal firewall. KIS is not free...

I like both Kerio and ZoneAlarm because they are easy to use... ZA is easier, but Kerio gives more flexibility...

^^^^

I like Windows SP 2's firewall

Yeah... SP2's firewall is really user-friendly. You can either set it to on or off ... User-friendly Its light.... but isn't customisable to say the least...

 

[rahul_becks23]

and yeah ........ there no difference in it in security either when its on or off............ ....... its very light ...... it dosent even work ........

[boosters]

Zone Alarm is best for me .

 

[ssk_the_gr8]

[kaustav_geek]

Outpost.... Its good too...

 

[s18000rpm]

if you've Windows XP SP2, then ONLY go for ZA Free & make sure you've enuf RAM (ZA7 takes 25MB+ RAM), or try to get older version of ZA Free (v6.5... was lighter).

 

[bbalegere]

Get comodo firewall.
Its the best with least resources.

 

[ravi_9793]

windows default firewall is lightest & the most user friendly.

 

[anandk]

za is not lite. stick with the sp2 fw. good enuf considering ur pc ...
