Default Which firewall for new PC with Vista?

Greetings to all: I am a new poster on the forum. There is much knowledge and experience here and I am very interested to know some of your opinions of the new Windows Vista system. I have installed Nod32 for my virus scanner on new PC but am unsure what to do about the firewall. Dare I trust the Vista Defense program? I used Sygate on my old system and was quite happy with it. I am trying to avoid spending money on software I really don't need; I appreciate any advice and opinions.

Suggest you look in the Other Firewall forum here at wilders. And maybe a moderator can move your post there as well.

If you want a free firewall you could try the Vista Firewall or PC Tool's Firewall Plus.

It's far from being free, though! 69 USD.

Thanks everyone, I'll check out those other firewalls. Still curious to know what others think about the new Vista system. I am finding it a bit of a learning curve. It is a bit different than XP.

I suggest the upcoming Comodo Firewall which will be released in a few weeks (it's free).
