It appears that the firewall that ships with Windows Vista is not as good as was promised.

Apparently it filters for outgoing connections but doesn't stop very much by default.

Sure, you can configure it, but the way you would have to is mission impossible because you have to do it by application

Another kick in the pants,
Decent third party firewalls appear to be few and far in between...
