I am afraid I'm just not a ZA fan. I have ulterior motives perhaps but to be
honest I've installed (and paid for) one of their newer versions on a test
system recently. It is still installed but the system is seldom in use. I
found that it was just as secure as any competative product but I didn't
like the interface nor the ability to give varied restrictions at the
application level that could be trusted. Assuming you have SP2 installed the
Windows Firewall is not that bad really. It has room to grow in outbound
packet filtering but for the most part it does it's job reasonably well
while using few system resources.
