Router only. No need for all that outbound, leaktest passing, resource hogging BS.

I'm still on dial-up so I feel a good firewall is needed. When I put in my new hard drive, I ditched ZA Free and installed CFP/D+ and have had absolutely no problems after following all the good advice from Kees.

I don't have a router.Vista firewall with sphinx was very good for me ,but now i'm using and most likely will keep Outpost 2009,which is surprisingly smooth,and offers supperior protection than my previous setup.

Bridged router and Injoy firewall 4.1 on Vista. Working nicely and it will stay for now. I voted for 'other'.

Cheers,
