Which Firewall do you use and why?
I was going to post a poll but no doubt I'd have left something out.

I use Kerio Personal Firewall, mainly because I've found most other Firewalls to be too overloaded with bloat for my needs.

What do you use and why?

The next one up from KPF (Winroute Pro). Works well and provides the control I want.

Re: Which Firewall do you use and why?
Kerio is a good choice. I use Zonealarm personally as it has been flawless at working with other applications.. Kerio hasn't had a good track record for bugs recently.. but I'm going to try it again on my home machine soon

Re: Which Firewall do you use and why?
Normaly use Zonealarm free, but I have got a free trial of F-Secure till August so I am giving that a go. Seems good but may not pay to keep.

Re: Which Firewall do you use and why?
We've had this discussion (several times) already.

Look what I found by typing 'firewall' into the search box.....
