KotaXor Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 I have been using Outpost firewall for a while, recently the software seem to get corrupted. I have try to reinstall it, but after a few weeks, it get corrupted again.I wanted to upgrade to the latest version, but it seems to be not compatible. I wanted to change firewall, but do not know which is a better and hardly firewall to change to.Can someone recommend a good firewall? Is Comodo Firewall Pro (free) any good?

Its just doesn't want to go away when I try to un-install, had to remove it from the registry finally. So far Comodo is working just fine, hope it is hardy enough!Had tried ZoneAlarm Pro also, but as with Outpost, it protect itself, and just does not want to be uninstalled.

zombiegod Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 I love Comodo. I used to use Zonelarm, then Outpost, then went back to Zonealarm. But Comodo's GUI is the bees knees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
einstürzende Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Outposts and especially Zones HIPS are pieces of crap compared with full featured HIPS of Comodo or ProSecurity, FW component of Outpost is best (with exception of IP ranges - cannot be set in fw rules)...KasperskysIS FW with ProactiveDefense is good with very clear PD verdict system, Its registry protection component is a masterpiece... (but it is not standalone, you must install at least AV on demand scanner)Zone is pure shit and it is for children and old demented people...BTW, I would like to hear some words for Online Armor, I never tried it...

KotaXor Posted February 11, 2008 Author Share Posted February 11, 2008 The reason why I don't use suite is because, well......., most of my stuff are not "genuine". As such, it is not possible to get support when it fail! I do not want my AV and Firewall to fail at the same time.Using different stuff ensure that I have minimum protection. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eBait Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Comodo is a nice FW. And it's free to use for anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(rather concerning?- protection is kind of "suspect"), but less anoyng as rule creating time and time over using Jetico for proceccess like "svhost"... :dance2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dumble Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 comodo is the best freeware fw at this moment i think... but if you use a router you dont need a firewall, only for outgoing traffic (if you want to block that??)i still use sygate firewall for my outgoing traffic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juanca Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 I use Online Armor Free and is awesome.I invite you to try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KotaXor Posted February 16, 2008 Author Share Posted February 16, 2008 Using Comodo for the past week, performing well. Went to grc.com and use ShieldUp to test and the result was PASSED!But.......recently there was an update for Comodo, did the update and the firewall has to re-learn all my process again! Fustrating!Apparently it does not save your previous setting!Other than that, so far its OK! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
