MemberWell, I use ZoneAlarm. Its really easy to use, and they offer a free version (which I used) and a version which you can buy, called ZoneAlarm Pro. The Pro version simply has other features such as email scanning, things like that.
I find the free version sufficient for my needs, you can check it out here:

Hope that helps.
*EDIT*
If you need help deciding between ZoneAlarm and ZoneAlarm Pro, i’ve used the comparison feature to generate this chart for you:

ParticipantThanks martin
but I too used Zone Alaram at the mean while I was running NIS also but when am using the 2 Firewalls at the same time my system gets too slow so I disabled NIS and I just run the zone lab even though I dont see any difference and I checked the disk space it was 50 Gp more but my system was damn slow any suggestion?August 21, 2004 at 5:08 pm #39491MartinBradley
MemberThere could be other reasons for your system being slow.
Some of my system:
Processor – Athlon XP 2000+ (Runs at around 1.2Ghz)
256 MB DDR RAM
40GB Hard Drive
ZoneAlarm Free Version 5.1.011.000My system isn’t slow at all running the above. Give me the specifications for your system like I have done, and we’ll compare them, try and figure out the reason why your system could be running slow. It might just need defragmenting.

Memberwell….I been using McAfee Personal firwall Plus for 6 month now, and it have been pretty good…very easy to use, and provide a lot of info. Keep your computer safe. But the best firewall is a combination of both Hardware and software firewall.
