The Best FireWall?!
jake2pointzero:
I use the Vipre Firewall as my Firewall, back then i use ZA but it slows down my system. Up to now i'm still looking for a better firewall. any suggestions.
cyberick:
I would recommend McAfee Firewall. It has the ability to block specific ports.

I will also suggest McAfee, but Members also often talk about Comodo?
So think about this two solution.

I wasn't yet try KIS 2009 & Kaspersky Firewall?
How much resource (CPU) it use?
By the way, recently I was uninstall ZA because incompatibility with McAfee VSE.
Now I'm sticked with some old version of McAfee Desktop Firewall 8.5... :thumbsup:

Did you try the COMODO ? You'll see it doesn't differ that much function wise from the ZA.
About the KIS2009; in normal conditions ( Not performing on-demand scan ) the CPU usage in task manager reported 0 mostly, the memory meter reported about 20 MB, I did a Full scan then the meters started jumping ! anyway; it showed a maximum of 95% CPU ( the average was about 20% ) and a maximum of about 150MB of memory on task manager ( average about 50 MB ), of course these aren't accurate numbers, just approximations a made after running the full scan for about 5 minutes.. ! :) if you have a specific reliable way to test it please tell me.
But in general I don't sense any annoying delay in the operation of my PC ( I have a 3GHz AMD 6000+ CPU with 2GB 400MHz RAM ).

I think that I was try some version before few years, if I find some good reason I'll install them again. ;)
Thank you for very good recension of KIS 2009. :thumbsup:
We don't have any tool for this kind of testing but your PC is very strong and he "push up" Kaspersky very easy. Probably some "weak" PC will have big problems with them?
