Btw, if anyone thinks that their firewall is the best, try putting it up against ShieldsUp and LeakTest. These are free online security tools provided by the Gibson Research Corp. to test how secure your firewall really is.

+1 . I am currently using Comodo Firewall and it is the best.
ZA is also good despite that it takes a lot of memory and checks each and every file on opening it which really takes much time.

I have tested my computer using ShieldsUp and I have passed all the tests and got a very good rating. It is so well protected that even a hacker cannot say that my computer exists in the Internet. Thankyou for the links.

Ok I am doing it now..........................

Oops admins kaha hai?........

@ax3 - It takes 5.5MB and is quite fast in loading doing system startup.

I have used ZA Internet Security Suite for 6 months, just recently shifted to Comodo.
It takes quite a large amount of memory and nothing is running after program shutdown. It scans each and every file on double-clicking upto 4 secs and is very irritating. But it contains many features which Comodo doesn't have as Parental Control, IM security, Identity protection, Email protection etc.
