Firewalls

Which firewall is the best one to use for Windows XP?

 

Sygate, Zone Alarm & Outpost are the 3 most recommended ones here from what I've seen. Kerio was also popular, but their free version is history at the end of the year.

MajorGeeks has a large selection:

star, where did you get the info about kerio. Not doubting i, just wondered where I can find that info. I really like Kerio and have it on several computers.
Thanks Jack

 

From their forum:

The way i read it, if you have the freebie you can continue to use it - there will just be no support available for it. Of course they could have inserted a date expiry bomb in the program so we'll just have to wait and see. In the meantime i will continue to use this excellent little program.

 

Thanks guys.

 

Thanks star, and Robert, I hope you're right. Ifeel it is the best one for my not so computer-literate friends' computers.

I also recommend you using Zone Alarm. But if you have money too spend get Outpost Firewall Pro(which I use).
