best free firewall provider?

funnyguy

I took my sygate firewall down to install a differant antivirus.When I went to reinstall it again I am told it is no longer available.Could someone tell me another good one?

Ceeen

I`ve used "Zone Alarm" in the past mate, with good results.

Blows your mind when you see how many attempted intrusions there`ve been on your system.

Sorry, no URL, but Google it, and it should come up.

edit, the basic firewall is totally free, the other options are 15 day trials

syagte is still around

kerio is almost the same and still free

registration required but ignore th 30 day trial thing, it just shuts down some additional features, the firewall still works and updates

Sygate is still available at some mirror sites, but it is no longer in production since the parent company was bought out by Symantec (the makers of Norton software). it's a cracking little package that i really liked, but unfortunately you'll have to go elsewhere for free software based firewalls.

have a look at Outpost and ZoneAlarm as they're about the best 2 free ones left out there IMO

ditto with Zonealarm but if you're using XP, make sure you get the latest version...
