Comodo or Zone Alarm free?

ok i need some firewall that works good with defensewall untill i get my outbound protection for defensewall hips now which firewall will work good and not slow down my pc?comodo or zone alarm?any recomendations will be very apreciated.any experience,thanks in advance
note:i also have mamutu any conflicts?

 

I think both would give good enough protection. If you need more control, Comodo with D+, but just for solid, simple protection, I've never had a problem with Zone Alarm (uninstall issues aside).

 

thanks did you experience any slow down?thanks

 

I didn't have any slowdown whatsoever with either product. I can't say whether either conflicts with Mamatu since I haven't yet had either firewall coupled with it.

 

I think you don't need either one of them. Considering u have DefenseWall + Mamutu.

 

I would agree.

 

You can also throw PC Tools FW in there if you're looking for a nice free fw that has negligible slowdown.

 

Hi Guys.

You can use Comodo Firewall (firewall only without Defense+), Which will work well with DefenseWall to create your own NETWORK rules.

Comodo Firewall should use about 7MB Ram on your system.

 

pc tools FW and Comodo FW would probably be good choices, neither of them gave me to much slowdowns, although Comodo firewall was a TINY bit slower.

 

thanks

 

for outbound?

 

good idea,like it beta 5 maybe

 

does pctools have hips?beta 5?like D+ in comodo?

 

i know that threatfire is kind of junk at the moment but does any one will recomend it with defensewall and does it have outbound protection at all?

 

i know it may be offtopic but what about Ashampoo free firewall?

 

i tried ashampoo e few days ago and it destroyed my computer.

 

ahhhhh how?woooo?scary the free or pro?

 

i dont know if mamutu has outbound protection maybe it has not sure any advises?

 

I use Ashampoo Free right now. It's extremely light, far lighter than ZA if you do p2p. Almost 0 CPU time and 16MB RAM under heavy load.

The problem is, sometimes it conflicts with other security applications. I used to have a very hard conflict with past TF versions (system lock).

So, it's all about compatibility. If it's compatible with the rest of your setup, then it's a great simple,very light firewall to use behind router (it doesn't stealth ports).

 

i noticed that.it is fast and it works just fine with mamutu and defensewall,i just install it let's see what happen,thanks

 

i also noticed that it is not recognized as firewall by the security center,i have xp2 it is normal?

 

I have XP SP3, but i 've no idea, since the first thing i do when i install windows is to disable the security center. Total waste of CPU and Ram.

Since they didn't update much the firewall, i am not surprised that it's not recognised. Both pro and free versions have seen very little development in time. Probably they forgot to fix this "detail".

 

ok i see,this one is very stable my pc is fast so far

 

i noticed you have twister also,does this one have hips fuction like D+?thanks

 

When it doesn't conflict, it's stable alright! I have had Ashampoo running with p2p 24h a day and never crashed.

No, it has a behaviour blocker module. More like Mamutu or Threatfire, but i believe it to be less capable than these 2, since these are specialised, while in Twister it's just a module out of 3 (Av, behaviour blocker, registry protector).

SSM is more like D+.
