I like kerio personal firewall. Has everything you need and its free.
They split off from tiny, and haven't really pushed it. They have a beta out, haven't tried it yet. I don't like tiny's newest versions. I tried zone alarm a while back. Didn't really care for it. Most other ones you "should" pay for.

All of the above are better than Windows own firewall since that one
only monitors incoming traffic and not outgoing traffic.
If you are not used to working with firewalls :just take the one
with the easiest interface ,later on when you understand the principals
better you can always change to a more sophisticated one.
For myself I like ZoneAlarmPro still the best.

Norton Internet Security 2003 is a package that includes AntiVirus and Firewall amongst some other cool things.
You could also consider getting a NAT Router. (Built-in hardware firewall)

I'm a big fan of Sygate Personal Firewall Pro. Shows you the ports in use, incoming/outgoing speed, and also has other useful features like stealthing of user data (OS, browser, referer fields etc), an IDS, and the ability to record and log packets. I used to use ZAP but found it reported a lot of false positives (it would sometimes report 300 or more "attacks" per day).
