Which would you suggest? For a mid to advanced user on a windows system.

pr0 · 05-19-2008, 04:29 PM

please write in your vote, if you don't agree with the ones above

anyone saying Norton// Mcafee etc. is not a mid to advanced user at all...so leave your opinion at the door ; )

1-Year of updates and support $39.95

Fuck having to pay every year. It should be a one time fee like most security software.

Unless you get a whole lot of people backing you up on this one. I'm not even looking at it.

Scroto · 05-19-2008, 05:03 PM

currently trying out comodo, so far so good

baX · 05-19-2008, 05:03 PM

Hey man, chillex

I hate spamming, I just found the threat which suit perfectly my Website. And I didn't just put anykind of links there. I rated top firewalls based on surfers feedback, reputation and software testings from PCWorld and other companies. So, don't be nervous.

Greetings,
Alex

fluffygrrl · 05-19-2008, 05:25 PM

ZoneAlarm is all you need pr0. Get the basic package, make sure you install it on a clean system, it's good forever.

Klen · 05-19-2008, 05:28 PM

I use mamutu and it works fine,better then "notorius" zone alarm which screwed my computer somany times.

How did it screw your computer ?

GrouchyAdmin · 05-19-2008, 05:46 PM

Your best 'defense' is sticking a $50 Linksys in front of it, really - but if you're trying to protect an idiot from doing dumb things, you do not want ZoneAlarm. Tiny's been bought out by CA, so that's dead. Sygate, well, yeah, that's dead.

I usually just enforce a port 80 redirect through a caching squid box with filters in place.

You could put the big blue E icon over firefox.exe, and 99% of the people wouldn't notice.

baddog · 05-19-2008, 05:47 PM

I used to use ZoneAlarm many years ago. Don't remember why I dropped it.

hmmm, maybe because I added a router.

I remember i always had problems with it,but last one which i will remember always was when i turned quake3 and computer crush beacuse alt tab neither any other command doesnt work during quake3 loading screen which cannot continue beacuse zone alarm block it.I tried with predefined value,but it's still doesnt work.With mamutu i dont have such problems.

fluffygrrl · 05-19-2008, 06:16 PM

Odd.

But anyway, as grouchy said, a 50 bucks linksys nat will do wonders for you.

Matt 26z · 05-19-2008, 06:25 PM

Comodo is a pain in the ass with all this "such and such is putting a hook into this or that and trying to modify a registry entry" Whatever. Nobody understands all that.

I use LookNStop, and I'm surprised it's not more popular. It's extremely lightweight.

Then add these rulesets if you need them

Been using Zonealarm with antivirus for years now

qxm · 05-19-2008, 06:35 PM

zone alarm firewall is pretty good........ I have PC tools firewall in my other PC though.... don't use that one very much.....

pr0 · 05-19-2008, 06:50 PM

Article found on google

I have read in the New "PC-Welt" (A German Computer Newspaper) a new Firewall Test.

The Comodo Firewall v3 and Zone Alarm Free v7 was tested also.

The PC-Welt Crew have bypassed the Comodo Firewall with a verry old Trick. They have stolen the Access Rights from a Allowed Programm (for example IE) and go with a New Application with the stolen rights online.

The same Test with ZoneAlarm was NOT succsessfull...ZoneAlarm have Blocked this Attemp.

Another Test was bypass the Firewalls with a Trojan. 8 from 10 Atempts was blocked by Comodo, 2 Trojans have succsessfull bypass the Firewall. ZoneAlarm has blocked all 10 Trojans.

ut oh....maybe time for outpost or zonealarm eh?

meatboss · 05-19-2008, 07:18 PM

linux: snort/selinux
windows: Outpost
hardware: cisco/shorewall etc..

I stand thoroughly behind my get real comment.
