Firewall

I need a new firewall, preferably something that is free. :stuck_out_tongue:

Where can I find a good one? Right now, I have EZ-Trust Anti-Virus, but it is expiring in a few weeks so I need a new one ASAP.

Help!

Re: Firewall

Try zone Alarm, it is free and very good.

Re: Firewall

try trendo PC-Cillin internet security 2005, and if u r after sumthin free like most desis' then ZoneAlarm as Ehsan said.

Re: Firewall

Firewall and AntiVirus (AV) are totally different things.

Get AVG AVG from www.grisoft.com
[Best, fastest, doesn't slow down computer, accurate....better than Mcafee/Norton]

Firewall get ZoneAlaram from www.zonelabs.com
[Best, easist]

BOTH FREE!

Re: Firewall

Just buy any good one......this is something you do not want to just try free and be vulnerable.

Re: Firewall

www.sygate.com - i've had the free version for approx three years now

Re: Firewall

Outpost!

Re: Firewall

Iโ€™m trying to install Zone Alarm and it says it canโ€™t install cause I have True Vector on and it needs to be turned off. :confused: What and how?

Re: Firewall

Start windows in safe mode. Open the internet logs folder c:\windows\internet logs or c:\winnt\internet logs. Delete all files that have the extension .rdb, .ldb, or TMP. Empty ur recycle bin, reboot ur system and install this crap :D zone alarm.

Re: Firewall

What's wrong with the Windows firewall? Its free and u can pretty much block most traffic.
If u do want another one get a commercial one, PM me for the goodies ;)

Re: Firewall

Windows Firewall sucks. :hehe: Other firewalls come with more options and provide better security via updates.

Re: Firewall

Zone alarm is the best so far. Psygate is good but take a lot of resources of machine, unless u have a good hardware I'd suggest Zone alarm.

Re: Firewall

Zone Alarm refuses to load onto my computer cause of the "True Vector", which it says I need to turn off. I have no idea what this is or how to turn it off.

I ended up installing Sygate instead.

Thanks everybody. :)

Re: Firewall

True Vector is a part of Zone Alarm, it means that someone might have installed Zone alarm in the past & didn't un-install it properly. You need to Open the task manager & kill the true vector process.

print the process list here & one of us might be able to pin point what process u need to kill to install Zone Alarm.

Re: Firewall

I somehow managed to successfully download Zone Alarm. Now, I have two firewalls on my computer, both Zone Alarm and Sygate. Do I really need both?

Re: Firewall

You sure about that? ZA didnt complain about having a second firewall insalled? Usually it does. I suggest you keep one cos sooner or later, they are going to clash and cause conflict of intersts :>
