    Zone alarm is giving me issues on all the machines I run it on. Even after a Fresh Install of Windows XP, Zone Alarm still gives me issues.
    What's another good one out there?

    Look n stop is good but troubling to set up with p2p programs . Symantic Internet Security is also good but I did read your post on Norton products .

    I like GhostWall. It has no app control. But I use ProcessGuard for that.

    i just use my router with NAT. i use protowall + blocklist manager for protection. and i use nod32 for antivirus. hardly uses any system resources

    and wat's awesome is my router doesn't slow down my speed @ all! i peak @ 550kb/s with torrents all the time

    You know I still like ZA Pro but an older version ...... say 5.5 or there abouts with out all the extras . I'v tryed so many , using Symantic Client Firewall right now and it seems easy to setup ,no problems with p2p programs less resources blah bla .

    Well ZoneAlarm seems to be ok now. Strange, but I just hope they update their previous update's memory issue soon.
