Title: Good free firewall?
Post by: aldo_14 on September 20, 2003, 04:44:13 pm

To DL.... preferably small in DL size for me 56k.  I'm completely new to this (& Win2000), so something that's good for newbies preferably :)

We just had a thread about this a while back, see it. Note that these "personal" firewalls aren't all that useful.

I have tried many personal firewalls to date, and Sygate is the best in my opinion. If you're also looking for a good free anti-virus software, avast! 4 is the best I have used so far. Home edition registration is free.
