I have said it before and I am saying it again , Zone Alarm is the best of all out there.

 

[sourav]

Zone Alarm!

ZoneAlarm takess too much of resources.
I had used Outpost firewall(free version) in the past. It worked satisfactorily and found it pretty good. Give it a try.

I recommend Zone alarm firewall. Click the below link for justification.

Phew !! man do a search in this forum, i'm sure you'll find a lot of thread about this.

i've used the Free version & because of its use (for me) & reputation i upgraded to ZoneAlarm PRO, I'm really happy with it ,
its got a good Anti-Spyware too.

 

[hailgautam]

zonealarm is the best

 

[dIgItaL_BrAt]

Zone Alarm

 

[busyanuj]

Outpost and ZoneAlarm are both good, go for any of them.

 

[Vishal Gupta]

^^ I second that
Zone Alarm & Outpost, both r very good

one more vote for za.

 

[abhijitroy]

Well, I vote for Sygate Personal Firewall (Pro).

 

[reddick]

Is 'Pro' version is free...where can i gt it...it's best rather than za as it is heavy than SPF

 

[techtronic]

Execute the command Firewall.cpl in Run
You will know which is the best firewall

 

[nishant_nms]

Execute the command Firewall.cpl in Run
You will know which is the best firewall

For me too

 

[Choto Cheeta]

Count my Vote for Zone Alarm... Me to a fan of ZONE ALARM...

 

[godsownman]

I'd say Zone alarm, its too good.

 

[it_waaznt_me]

Commodo is good .. But if you want the best protection, then Jetico is the best ... It will look a bit difficult to use at first .. But once you've put all the settings, your system is a safe one on the net .. You can have a look at Firewall Leaktester's results for a reference.

I use Zone Alarm and serves the purpose of a BASIC firewall
It is also free
