Best Free Firewall  Updated January 16, 2006
No other single product class seems to cause as much angst to average users in their installation and day-to-day use as Firewalls. That's why my choice for "best" goes to Kerio Personal Firewall  the product that seems to cause the fewest problems for users yet manages first rate protection as well. Kerio dropped the free version in late 2005 but thankfully Sunbelt Software, the makers of the excellent CounterSpy anti-spyware scanner,  picked it up and will continue making it available [1] under the name of Sunbelt Kerio Personal Firewall. Note that the free and paid versions of Kerio are the same. If you don't buy the product some advanced features are automatically turned off after 30 days. The latest free version (V6) of the ZoneAlarm firewall [2] comes in as a good second choice though it can be a troublesome program on some PCs. It's also a very cut-down product; each new version of the free ZoneAlarm seems to have fewer features while its commercial big brother grows ever more bloated. More adventurous users might like to try the now discontinued Sygate Personal Firewall. It's still available from numerous download sites[3] and is an excellent and robust firewall though not the easiest to set up. Another tricky product to install is NetVeda Safety.Net firewall [3] however its performance is quite outstanding and it offers application control and content filtering as well. This highly capable product deserves to be better known and experienced users should definitely put it on their short list.

there for a screenshot of sygate firewall, i did the same thing *wink* and got personal pro. Symantec bought Sygate out so there will be no more Sygate products, which is a shame.

yea there are better visually stimulating firewalls, but i go for functionality over looks, i dont look at it much anyway.

If you like kaspersky look at this:
