Look and stop is light. wouldnt really recommmend zonealarm even though i have it (its about average to high).
You could try a router and a program like net limiter ( which mointors all incomming and outgoings, all of which you can control and even limit how much bandwith is used). Its alot easier to keep track then zonealarm.

I'd vote for ZoneAlarm too.
I think "Outpost Firewall".
agree with BLACKBIRD - ZoneAlarm Pro 2007 is the best (no 1 rated firewall) to use and it's doesn't take up resources ! if you can afford it and are rich you could get a hard-wired firewall from CISCO systems !

Shut up shut up ! I have my fingers in my ears . :D Wish it was that easy friend , does it work with Utorrent , can I play games or D/L movies ?
I know I can surf the net safely and my computer boots in 20 seconds again but at what cost ? I'm going to be a fringe player lamenting the fact ..... there's no good programs ? Just wondering not trying to break your balls . :)
For XP a recommend probably the best firewall Outpost..never have any problem with him...Zone alarm is pure crap IMO.
