    Neither of those two alternatives have the choice of a built in firewall as OA does though.

    Hi

    If you need alternative to OA you need:

    1-You need a robust firewall, and I think the most closest to OA is Outpost

    2-You need a powerful HIPS, SSM is very powerful

    3-You need some kind of Browser control app to deal with ActiveX and scripts

    4-But in all cases you'll loose the simplicity and easiness of OA

    OA in my opinion is the only very robust security app which you can set it to match a very advanced user's needs OR to set it to match you grandma's typical needs. and it will do it's job perfectly in both cases.

    Cheers
