If you're looking for a free one, you could also take a look at Sunbelt Kerio. :)

It only wouldn't work on MY system. :'(

I tried with NAV2005 Sygate Pro (no problem) and now I'm very pleased with "Look N' Stop" 2.05p2.

I also tried Outpost but had some BSOD (don't know if it was related to Norton though) ...

Disable the worm guard to start out with. It is a minimal firewall and if you have a full fledged firewall such as Windows firewall, Ghostwall, Sunbelt Kerio(highly recommended), Sygate (as long as you don't have a proxy), etc., then it should be disabled to avoid conflicts.
