A decent firewall...

[apaxfrenzy]

Greetings!

I know of BlackIce, ZoneAlarm and other titles but, I was wondering what the folks on AnAndtech recommend when it comes to firewalls because, I trust alot of the users opinions on here. The lowdown is, we have three computers, 2 with XP Pro, 1 with 98 and, we are looking for a decent yet, strong firewall. If anyone can recommend one, I would greatly appreciate it!

Peace be with you! -Dave

if youre not interested in using linux with iptables and nat masquerading, then a SOHO router with a SPI firewall would be your best bet.

Linksys makes a decent one (BEFSX41) that might satisfy your needs. or you can pick up a cheap sonicwall/webramp from ebay for around 100.00

w00t to that, get a cheap router with a firewall
ive gotten a couple dlink di-604's for around 20 bucks. firewall, dmz options, port forwarding and the like, not bad for 20 bucks
