look here...it will only take a second!

I just got done cleaning my computer with lots of help from this website. Now I need to secure it so I can hopefully prevent it from happening again. Does anyone know of a free firewall that is good and I can download?

 

Hi Spencer

Here's a good one,

Hi Spencer. My I jump in here real quick? I would like to note that if you are a newbie with firewalls I would go with Zone Alarm. It''s newbie friendly.

 

Are any of these totally free(no 30 day trials). If not, are there any out there?

 

Kerio v2.15 - Free
Kerio v4.x - Free and pay version
Look 'n' Stop Lite - Free, no application filtering
Look 'n' Stop - pay version with application filtering
Outpost - Free and pay Pro version
Sygate - Free and pay Pro version
ZoneAlarm - Free and pay Plus/Pro versions

Thank you crazym, subratram, notageek, and snowbound. Without you offering your help for free I would have alot more problems than I do.Thanks.

p.s. I ended up getting Sygate.

 

Hi Spencer

Glad we could help and good to hear you found one you like and suits your needs. Any other questions or concerns, don't hesitate to ask.

As you chose Sygate, you might want to check out their forum for any tips/hints for users of their firewall: Sygate Product Forums.
