Has anybody tried out the new PC-cillin 2002?
It has a built in Firewall.

I'm still having PC-Cillin 2000 build in Ontrack's System Suite 3.0; until now I haven't bought an upgrade to System Suite 4.0 (no money at the moment *:( ).
I'm also still wondering what the version is of PC-Cillin which is build in System Suite 4.0, maybe the new one cause System Suite 4.0 also comes with a firewall.

I ran the ShieldsUp test at GRC and PC-cillin 2002 passed those tests just fine.

It failed miserably on the PC Flank tests.

I believe that System Suite still uses the PC-Cillin 2000 engine. *They would probably update to the new engine through the "Easy Update" facility at some time.

The firewall that is in included with SS 4.0 is based on Sygate Personal Firewall, though it isn't the full-featured version. *You cannot set advanced rules like you can in Sygate PF.

Thanks Octogen!
That's indeed what I was thinking but wasn't sure about.
