    Lite Firewall

    Hey, I got Sygate as my firewall, but it takes up way to much memory... (I've seen it get to around 37 megs, it is usually hanging around 27-29 or so) Anyone got a good recommendation, or do most firewalls takes about this much ?

    That sounds really weird to me..............have you just installed it and it is trying to update/register or whatever?

    just a thought................

    I did just install it, but it has gone through all its updates... I think I'll give kerio a try or something.

    when it comes to personal fire walls. I do think that ZoneAlarm is a considerable chioce. I tried it out, and it is really cool.

    I do not like ZA anymore it is not rule based. Dont get me wrong it is REALLY easy to use but it actually lets a lot of stuff by.
