Version: Comodo Firewall Pro 3
Pros: Great at what it does. Has a nice interface. Passes penetration tests with flying colors and it's free. It's extremely light on resources and loads fast. It's stable and a real work horse. Keeps you safe but its a pain in the rear end because it's like me, I'm an older man and my memory isn't what it used to be. Seems this dragon has no memory!
Cons: But, it's a pain in the rear. It asks over and over and over, Seems it has a bad memory or no memory at all. Even it you manually create a rule for a web address or a program, Set *** to allow, it continues to ask and ask. Once, if ever the memory issue is addressed, it will be the very best firewall available, bar none, paid or free for all Windows operating systems.

"Non-intrusive, light on resources."
Pros: I downloaded this firewall and used it for about an hour and it was doing what it says it does. With a very easy interface, very low resource usage (a lot lower than ZoneAlarm), this firewall is my first favorite. It is also less annoying than ZoneAlarm, and runs smoothly. It hasn't crashed on me yet, and it works very well on my pc. It's also free of charge, which is one of the greatest benefits!
Cons: Nothing yet, hopefully there are no cons to this in the future.

Version: Comodo Firewall Pro 3
Pros: Easy to install with good options. Not difficult to configure. Works like a dream with hardly any use of the CPU. Doesn't slow down P2P applications. Pop up warnings seem to dissapear after a short time once the firewall has got used to your PC settings and applications (unlike Zone Alarm). Probably the best free firewall you will ever find.
Cons: None.

"Just downloaded this a couple of days ago"
Pros: doesn't seem to adversely affect computer operation thus far. Have no way to really test effectiveness. People that are much smarter than I feel that it keeps the bad guys out. I just have to trust them. I guess all this means that if it keeps the bad guys away and doesn't noticeably encroach on your use of your computer, it must be a good thing.

Version: Comodo Firewall Pro 3
Pros: I'd give it four and a half if I could, but it may be worth a five in the next week or so when they release an update to address some of the issues. That said, it is worth the install and is better than any other firewall I have used (ZA and sKPF). Reminds me of the old Sygate firewall.
Cons: It's an early GA release and is still a little quirky, especially with Defense+. But I have no problem with a little quirky-ness, after all I use Windows.
