| reply to kim Re: [Poll] What Firewall Do You Use? '07
Two windows boxes (98SE/2000) running Kerio 2.1.5, one running GhostWall (2000), an ibook running nothing, and a WRT-54G router. Probably going to pop Jetico on my primary machine (the one running Ghostwall) sometime soon. -- Think outside the fox...Seamonkey |

| reply to kim Currently using an old computer (pIII-450) with Pfsense. I was using M0n0wall for quite some time then switched to Smoothwall just for a change. Then settled on Pfsense as it seems to be working the best for me. -- Go away or I will replace you with a very small shell script. |

1 edit | reply to bjf123 I am using a combination Firewall & HIPS known as Dynamic Security Agent. It's free at... »www.privacyware.com/dynamic_secu···ent.html
Firewall -- DSA makes ports invisible to port scans and protects unauthorized entry the same as a dedicated firewall. DSA also contains Private Firewall's layer-3 firewall using Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) technology running in the background.
DSA also provides protection for TCP, UDP, ICMP and and UDP Protocols, just like Privatefirewall.
HIPS -- DSA has 4 configurable/trainable modules in its interface (System Anomaly, Email Anomaly, Process Detection, and Application Security). DSA detects malware and intrusions based on behaviors characteristic of unauthorized system use. Examples include but are NOT limited to the following:
- Attempts to access a protected registry area - Attempts to access a protected object - Attempts to Initiate a foreign process - Attempts to control Windows service - Attempts to create a DNS request - Attempts to initiate outgoing TCP traffic - Attempts to SMTP more than your personal average amount of email - Abnormal cpu usage for any given process - Abnormal number of threads for any given process
Thus, DSA has strong Firewall capabilities PLUS its 4 Modules provide superb behavior-blocker HIPS-type capabilities. |

| reply to kim I was happily using Comodo for a long while, but everything crashed yesterday and my only option was to reformat and reinstall WinXP. As I just added my regular security programs back in, my CPU kept running at 90-100%. By process of elimination I found that Comodo was causing it. Why, I have no idea since it was working fine with heck of a lot more programs before the crash.
So now it's ZAF for me.  -- Life is simply one damned thing after another. |

| reply to DaHen said by DaHen :... Comodo seems to work great here behind a Linksys router. Same here. Using Zone Alarm (required) on the work PC, but found much better speed with Comodo on the home machine. Have dad running an older ZA-free on his Win98 machine. |
