  1. #31
    I use a long Time Sygate Personal Firewall Pro.
    It is the best for me.

    I had AOL McAfee, I just switched to Symantec Corp. Edition V10 for Antivirus and Outpost because I saw your post. I gotta tell ya I love my new security setup. Outpost seems to be very hardcore. I also have less memory usage and my computer seems to be faster.

    All you've got to do now is switch to Kaspersky or NOD32 antivirus and you're all done.

    I've heard mixed feelings on NOD32. Kaspersky? That just sounds stupid... Nah, but I've never heard of that one and I just used up some of my ratio on Oink for Symantec so I'm a gonna use that for a while. Ninja Stealth Firewall ON!

    Norton - never had any problems with it really except one day it just kept on getting disabled. So i switched firewalls. Norton, although known for its resource usage [and the zillions proceses u see in taskmanager], it was ok for me.

    Zonelaram, i installed it and everything but whnever i tried to connect to the net, i got that blue screen of death. So uninstalled it quickly.

    I use outpost now and everytime i do a test, everythings stealthed and passed with flying colors. I have to thank outpost for encouraging me to learn about rules and ports etc [something i never bothered with norton]. I love outpost's logging too and its detail. The inbuilt plugins are great too. So outpost gets my vote The only gripe i have with outpost is that it doesnt work well with my tv capture card.

    I've tried zone alarm and I didn't like that softaware at all. Someone comes always through and crashes my computer. But now i'm using Norton Internet Security 2006 and no problems at all. My recommendation goes to Norton.

    I have used Blackice and Zonealarm and wasn't happy with either of them and have now moved on to Sygate. the only reservation I have is as it's a discontinued line so to speak is that a worry I mean how long will it still be relevent considering how fast things move in the IT sector? other than that I think Sygate rocks.
