Can anyone suggest a good software based or hardware based firewall for a small network???

Zone alarm is pretty good at detecting attempted intrusion. I don't know how it would work for a medium sized network.
 
Zone alarm for individual pc's
a linux/bsd box using iptables or ipchains for firewalling if you want to protect the whole network (my personal choice)

As far as to why, thats up to you to research, I've already done teh work for myself, I'm just pointing you in good directions 😀
 
I use ZoneAlarm and am pretty pleased with it. I like it mainly because it's the most simple to use and easy to configure. There are a couple of different versions here, one of which that is free.
 
Zone Alarm is a very good software firewall, however those that know say security is hardware not software. The SMC barricade can't be beat for the money, check out hot deals.
