| said by MagMan  : Perhaps I should have mentioned that the newsletter actually describes my experiences with Comodo 3 and Online Armor 2.1. I found the discussion appropriate for average users like myself and my friends. This kind of discussion makes much more sense to me than looking a poll of FWs as I have searched for security software.

Have to agree with Scot's findings on OA.
Best one I've used.

Personally, I think $40 makes a big difference - CFP is free which gets it looked at by me.
For average users, I do think a bunch are put off regarding paying for a separate firewall when one comes with XP and Vista, or is bundled with their AV (like Norton, etc). I don't think many will ever even hear of Online Armor OR CFP, but they are going to be likely to already have AV if they manage to find that blog.
