Version: Agnitum Outpost Firewall Pro 3.0.543.5722
Pros: I had use leaktest for this,result is it was unable to connect, which means outpost past the leaking test! Wow! I love this stuff, it makes me safe for websurfing and safe for leaving my pc on for 24/7, also at the time while i was away from my pc. Thanks alot!
If you're not an advanced pc users, can set it to "Rules Wizard Policy" mode. For an advanced users of course set it to "Block Most" mode, this stuff is cool if you really know how to use it, trust me!! And Thanks alot Outpost, you rocks!!

"A bit heavy on system-resources.."
Pros: but an excellent product....too heavy for my 256M, so I downgraded to the free-version which is actually the easiest on ram that I've found. (other than windows f/w) I found the ability to define the ruleset much "tighter" than ZA!
Cons: already have enough s/w-scanners, so this just weighed my system down....if it out-performed A2 & SuperAntiSpyware, I'd consider the switch!

"My Favorite Firewall (lavasoft made their firewall from this I assume)"
Pros: Five different policies avalible:
Disable
Allow most
Rules wizard
Block most
Stop all
This product also comes with realtime spyware protection.
Easy to use with its explorer like style.
Most defualt setting have no need to be changed.
Not a memmory hog.
Has a quicktime plugin for Internet Explorer that speeds it up by blocking ads popups.
Cons: The spyware protection caught a false positive in my Restricted sites (Sgrunt) during the antispyware scan but you can just click ignore when it happends

"Good software down to competitors"
Pros: Does exactly what a firewall has to do, nothing special otherwise.
Cheaper than some firewall products.
Cons: Use loads of system resources ending up crashin your system in the midway of your project.Certainly not suited for low configuration computers.
lags behing flexibility Zone Alarm can offer as a firewall and pc-cillin as free product.
No good if you gonna upload loads of thing in the net as it might crach the system in the middle making you re upload everything.
Certainly not suitable for novice and neither does a great work to satisfy Experts.
If I had to pay money for the product I would rather pay a little bit extra for comfort and satisfaction rather than reducing the money to sacrifice both.
If You gonna look as a package try Norton, if you gonna try firewall try Zone Alarm or Pc-cillin.
