    Used free Zone Alarm for a long time, but now switched to Look n Stop, lifetime paid licence.

    Running Kerio 2.15 for two days.

    Now I know why so much people love this former version :eek: ...

    I wish Kerio 4 can get the same Rules window, and rule edition prompt mode on-the-fly, one day: Current Kerio 4.2 with theses Kerio 2's rules features would be the best firewall ever in my opinion !!! :eek: (and dear God, why did they remove it in V. 4 :ouch: - Rules are ways more obvious to edit in V. 2).

    zone alarm free, although if I have the settings on high firefox doesnt attempt to connect at all or zone alarm doesnt acknowledge it.

    Kerio 2.1.5. Couldn't ask for better, even if it did cost. Using separate HIPS, System Safety Monitor. IMO, this combination is superior to the security suites that perform both functions.

    If I ever decide to buy a firewall, most probably it will be ZoneAlarm Pro + Router of course.
    Right now, I'm using ZoneAlarm Free. My I.Q. is too low for rule-based firewalls. :'(

    Kerio 2.1.5 here, just to keep an eye on outbound traffic behind the router.

    While I've used McAfee, TrendMicro, Windows, ZA, and a few others, I've got Comodo's fully free, full-version, and I really like it.:thumb:

    Updating mine...from business grade RV082 router..to..

    ...Endian...it's a linux based security appliance, running NAT, deep SPI, Snort IDS, ClamAV, several anti-spam as an application level transparenty proxy. Wonderfully powerful.

    Free download, open source, just take any mid to upper range P3 from the junkpile.

    I've been using Comodo Free Firewall for a few days now and really like it. It's easy to use and understand and I like the GUI. It hasn't slowed my system down much at all...that's always a :thumb:
