There is no way that the XP firewall is as secure as ZA Pro, XP blocks incoming port scans but cannot prevent anything nasty on your system trying to get out.
ZA Pro takes a bit of tweaking ( use Robin Walkers excellent advice) to get it set up. If it wasn't for the little blinking icon in the systray I would not even know it was there.
