Best Firewall

[((Ghost))]

hey, i was just wondering, since many of u guys spend a sh*t load of time online, what would u say is the BEST firewall/Virus Scanner/etc? i have blackice/norton/ad-aware currently. don't worry about price, but the major flaws of some things. i wanted ZoneAlarm, but i have a cousin who works for an accounting place, and they use computers constantly, and he recommended black ice (a lot of people try to steal the money, and a firewall is an obvios must have). so again, what do YOU think is the best? thanks in advance.

Zone Alarm is highly recommended by most people I know.

I used to have Zone Alarm Pro. Bothered me though with all the pop ups it did. Asking if you want this to connnect to the internet all the time. I mean everytime. I got so mad, I just rid of it.

Firewalls suck my ass. The best firewall is no firewall.

^I think router firewalls are the best. They are the toughest to get through. Thats because it is like another computer.

I hate my router firewall. Its so complicated to use and is extrememly annoying.

If your getting a security system just get Trend Micro PC-cillin. The firewall is great and really simple to setup. For beginners it's perfect. While Zone Alarm is better if you know what your doing overall. However I still found that PC-cillins security package is much better for what I need. No taxing on the systems power since it's all intergrated...

However stand alone. I would say Zone Alarm is the best.
