RE: Software Firewalls

Hence, "Resistant" not "immune" :)


I'm coming to the conclusion that Sygate was the best firewall and that
we're in deep trouble If there's nothing that contains all the features
and actually works.  Still looking at F-prot and seeing if ZA can be
saved (it still lacks an IPS).

Does anyone have any hard date about F-prot as far as memory
footprint/resistance to attacks?

This requirement rules out every past and future personal firewall.
