RE: Personal Firewalls

[Tony Chryseliou <TonyC () bgls com>]

This is what I'm confused about... I already played with the eval version of
Symantec Desktop Firewall... I looked at the screen shots of NIS and it
looks like the identical product (I know about the NAV bundling).

What gives here? What's the difference between the two products, if at all?
Is this Symantec playing marketing games?

Norton Internet Security 2001 from Symantec.

Works very well for remote management. Can update rule sets remotely. The
fact that it has the ability to define granular rule sets put it ahead of
ice imho.

We liked Black Ice as well; however, we feel that a virus scanner is also
necessary on any computer that connects to our network.  NIS2001 is an
integrated product that behaves very nicely (in our experience) that
includes a firewall, anti-virus, etc.
