btw whos your isp?

what the hell would ZA do that his router cant????

btw, if your gonna get a software firewall, get a good one like sygate..... dont stick with something like ZA cause its easy to use [/b][/quote]
I haven&#39;t found anything that I would want to do that ZA can&#39;t do and Sygate can.

And Sygate is such a pain to configure most people can&#39;t be sure they&#39;ve got it right, and probably haven&#39;t.

While that situation continues Sygate will never be a viable alternative to the more popular commercially available packages.

Don&#39;t knock ZA because it is easy to use, that&#39;s just plain dumb.

Agreed.

I tried zone alarm once when I was just experimenting with windows and basic firewalls and that damn program had my whole pc locked down.

What&#39;s worse, I had other network devices going through mine so they couldn&#39;t access anything either. After I read the docs I got it working and set aside from the nagging prompts I got when something tried to access anything, it was a pretty good program.
