I dunno, but lets have a little poll.

What do you think is the best firewall? Consider the detectability, ease of use, price, ect.

Now, vote for what you think is the best.

Atguard works great. And if you are willing to look for it, the price is 'just right' http://www.speedguide.net/ubb/smile.gif

BlackIce I think is the best firewall, in terms of price, easy of configuration.

Sybergen Secure Desktop (formerly Syshield) works great for me.

I use BlackIce and as far as setup is pretty straight foward. Also I was wondering if any who uses BlackIce has had any problems running it while playing games like Half Life or using Gamespy to pull server lists?

I think BlackICE is the easiest firewall to use...

I use blackice and I like it.

Jalapino when you play halflife and use gamespy if your security is set to high it might not work right. With my security set on cautious it shows many of the orange (not important) attacks everytime I refresh the server list in HL or Gamespy.

By the best thing for a firewall is a Linux box.

Windows it would be Signal 9's firewall.

I like the Sybergen Secure Desktop (aka syshield). I am running it behind the Sygate firewall.
