What firewall do I want?
I've tried ZA, not really happy with it, tried comodore, wich asked me every damn time any application tried to access the internet in a slightly different way.
Oh, and obviously I don't want to pay (too much)

only firewall i have is on my router, and i have had hardly any problems over the last year and a half with viruses/spyware, probably because i've not been on dodgy sites though, use firefox, run scans, updates and security updates.
i think these extra firewalls are more hastle than they are worth.
i have windows firewall disabled aswell as the router may aswell be doing it's job.

Kerio personal firewall, free - and you can let it make all decisions for you if you like - OR make it so that you have to permission everything. I left ZA for kerio, as ZA drove me nuts.
