Poll: Zonealarm Pro Or Norton Personal Firewall 2001?

[Delusion2001]

Which one do you guys recommend?

 

[yakko]

Zone Alarm. I have never used either but after uninstalling a version of Noorton anti-virus and then needing to go edit the registry to get rid of the error messages I refuse to use their products.

 

[Emulex]

man both of those suck. Get a real firewall. I have to tech support idiots with zonealarm and black ice all the time.

I also get phone calls from folks saying i'm hacking their box from my web server.



Junk

 

[Delusion2001]

emulex - so what firewall do you recommend then?

 

[MiniThug]

Never had any experience with Norton but ZoneAlarm has been working great for me.

 

[Pyxis]

ZoneAlarm

 

[Mday]

norton's product is based on atguard which symantec bought a while ago.........

atguard is a real software firewall =)

Zonealarm.
Its the best all round, and it has the best features for the price (if you download the free one its still good, still packed with features).

 

[ViRGE]

I pick option C, BlackIce.

 

[datalink7]

Zonealarm.

Norton is easier to bypass, or so I have heard.

 

[konichiwa]

Hardware firewall.

 

[Soybomb]

I let my linux box handle all my firewalling, but I'd choose the free zonealarm.

 

[sharkeeper]

For REAL protection you need a REAL HARDWARE FIREWALL.



Cheers!

 

[MooseKnuckle]

NORTON

 

[Shmorq]

Obviously a hardware firewall is best, but to answer you question, I'd choose Zonealaram.

 

[chansen]

sharkeeper, hardware fireWALL, not hardware fireARM!

 

[Delusion2001]

lol to sharkeeper

 

[Emulex]

linux NAT/firewall with snort running

good stuff.

In the parameters of this question:

ZoneAlarm

However, go get a Hardware firewall if you can afford it.
