Oh I don't know, I quite like it.

It came top in a firewall test last year.

I haven't tried this beta yet, but LnS is far from useless. At least version 2.05 was one of the best firewalls out there and with very low resource usage (about 5 MB of RAM).

You can also check a comparison at Firewall Leak Tester.

Yeah I don't know what the problem is on your end ThePitt, but LnS is probably the best software based firewall money can buy. Its hardly noticeable, runs great, works great, and scores usually as the top firewall in many tests from several top security sites.

Highly recommended firewall.

I'd still recommend Comodo - It's free and has won several awards. Extremely potent Firewall.

yeh i fully agree with MichaelBL...comodo is really a proper firewall that is simply amazing at wot it does and the fact that its freeware....its really a joint venture..

I have been Vista's firewall for outgoing and incoming connections.
Although it took me a while to work out how to use outgoing firewall.

So far it has worked great.
