RE: Software Firewalls

I've got the Pro version, but Sygate will not be updating the product,
ever, so new exploits (and Sygate has had a few) will never be patched.
Not my idea of running safe.  

Besides the IDS signatures will never be updated and as new exploits are
uncovered will basically become useless. If I could stay w/ Sygate I
would but Symantec's discontinuing the Sygate firewall.

IMHO they're discontinuing the wrong firewall.

Sygate still offers a free edition of the product for personal use only.
