To name a few software firewalls for windows.
What kind of firewall are you looking for?
Im looking for a good firewall easy to use. Im new at this so I don't know really. Which one you would suggest to me?
Are you using windows?
I'd recommend getting a lil' Linux/FreeBSD/OPENBSD box and making it a gatekeeper but for a newbie a software friewall should be adequate.
Start going down the list and read about them. See if they do what you want... It's a real personal choice but those three do work well.
Ok thanks for your help :)
for a newbie to firewalls i suggest the free zone alarm- www.zonelabs.com
it offers good protection, its simple and best of all its free. if you like that i suggest paying to upgrade to zonealarm pro or get mcafee firewall.
but for a newbie i suggest zonealarm
I used to swear by ZA, I like Sygate better now. . .
I think that ZoneAlarm is a good starting point for n00b135.
I recommend becoming confortable with this, then move on to a PFW that could be considered more beneficial from a security perspective.
if you want a good firewall for free i would suggest zone alarm. Its kind of agitating asking you to leave ports open or closed but it works the best of all free fire walls in my opinion
