What kind of firewall do you use?

AtGuard. Love it, would recommend it if you can get ahold of it somewhere.

Wow, I thought I was the only person who still used AtGuard. I've been using it for more than 3 years now and still have not found a better personal software firewall. That, along with a Linksys router, and I feel that my home systems are more than secure.
For those who don't know what AtGuard is/was, Symantec bought them out in late '99, dumbed down one of the world's best and most customizable personal software firewalls (so the less sophicated could use it I suppose), and incorporated the core technology into NIS.

I've got a SMC 7004ABR router and Zone Alarm. I like how ZA works (guilty until proven innocent). ZA also recognizes when an approved executable has changed, so a trojan given the same name as an approved program, for example, EXPLORER.EXE, can't silently get network access.

I am downloading Smoothwall right now. Gonna get DSL soon and want to set this up on a old system that is gathering dust right now.

Linksys Router. It works great.

Software.
Sygate Personal Firewall.

It's free and it works great. I'm in stealth mode.

NAT on my Router.

At work I've installed and configured a Sonicwall Firewall device which has been fine... pretty much just a router but it has some nifty features like a VPN server onboard...
