The best free Firewall available is Kerio Personal Firewall, it is alot more powerful than ZA and alot more customizable too.


Thanks for the heads-up, that looks pretty good on paper, I'll download it and give it a go.

While searching for some info about it, I found this great comparison, maybe some people will find it helpful.

Well, it does seem like Kerio is a decent FREE firewall. The comparison chart provided only included the free version of ZA, which is unfortunate as the Pro version has a lot more features then the free version. I also wouldn't take the final score too seriously as the best of the free firewalls seems to be Outpost FREE, yet it failed 3 of the leak tests!

Btw, I'm gonna download those leak tests and try them out. I've already tried the one from grc and my ZA Pro 2.6 passed without problem.

She more than *looks* menacing!  But I've changed my avatar to one that looks less menacing!



@Glaucus
Yeah, the 'scores' are completely misleading!  The feature comparison's nice tho.  I wouldn't mind knowing which leaktest ZA failed.
