    The only one I can't get Tiny to pass is Breakout, the rest you can configure Tiny to pass. Tiny is great, but CA doesn't support it so I have moved on. Have you given Comodo a chance? The new version is coming out before the end of this month and should address a lot of requests. ATM, 2.0 isn't bad and passes all leaktests (besides the old zone alarm test that will be fixed in the new version)

    I believe I have tried comodo before the name does ring a bell, I am starting to get put off tiny more now it is very heavy on the cpu, doing anything in the monitor or admin gui normally causes a cpu delay like its been worked hard, starting apps are sluggish and some apps close slowly as well, the rules are a bit messy the way they work as well. I will give it a thumbs up for low cpu utilisation for lan traffic (20% in tiny vs 90% in kerio) and for its tweakability.

    I noticed you commented on the Blink thread did you evaluate this before Comodo?

    Sorry for the delay, no I have not tried Blink. Personally I am very hesitant to try software as the installation process requires me to uninstall most my security software and then run a monitored installation which allows for complete removal later. Blink does look very nice, especially the IDS, but I am not impressed enough to dive in quite yet...
