Free Firewall?

I use ZA Free. It is unstable and creates conflicts on
the system including connection to RoadRunner, which was
installed today and blocked today. I'm afraid to allow
any outgoing traffic as I don't know which are legit.

Are there any other free firewalls available?

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks a bunch.

Choose 1 only. Installing more than 1 firewall software is not recommended.
If you are running Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2), Windows Firewall is
turned on by default.

you can afford it Look'n'Stop

I agree. I've been trying the current version on Win ME and Win XP. It's
fine on XP but I've gone back to Kerio 2.1.5 on ME.

Kerio still provide 2.1.5:

Heck - I still run 2.1.5 on XP!!!

I took a quick look at the added complexity of later versions, and decided
that I had better things to do (like lifting my right armg)

Hey, Noel.

Is 2.1.5 more stable and less conflicting than ZA Free, in
your opinion?

Thanks,

You don't need to be Noel to answer an emphatic yes to that!

I figured I ought to look at the 4.1.x series. Once it's configured it's
fine (on XP). I guess I'm still using it for two reasons, that there's
seemingly no reason not to, and to keep abreast of the latest build (now
4.1.3). It doesn't interfere with my drinking - though I had managed not to
touch a drop today until you brought the subject up!

Point taken, Shane. Noel bailed me out nearly a year ago
so not only do I enjoy his posts but respect his
guidance. It's one of those things.

ZA really fights with a lot of things. I'll give 2.1.5 a
whirl (by itself of course) and see how it works.

Thanks for the feedback, Shane.
