Definitive Best Firewall 2008

[kinetix63 Veteran]

A fresh "Best Firewall" poll for 2008. Please use this as a reference when researching Firewall utilities. As time goes on, the poll can be updated to add further options.

Happy voting!

[Crucify]

You didn't even add the best one of all " F-Secure "

[Krysys]

hardware nat / firewall, and the built in one in leopard.

This was in the 2007 poll but removed from 2008 as it had next to no votes at all.

[RageOfFury]

Smoothwall Express 3.0 :yes:

[Lingwo]

I vote Comodo, for a free firewall it does a bloody good job and it is very feature rich. Also easy to use. Defence+ in the new version i think is a good idea but for power users i think it is a little obtrusive, thankfully they give you the option to switch it off completely.

Where's the Firewall of Kaspersky Internet Security? :hmmm:

[Sam Symons Veteran]

What about the AVG Internet Security Firewall?

[BlueFlame]

Kaspersky Internet Security.

You must add Kaspersky Internet Security to the list.

I use the AVG firewall, included as part of the Internet Security suite.

Hardware firewall along with the built in Vista one.

I use Hardware Firewall on my router (My router is a Buffalo Tech Nfiniti), along with M0n0wall, and with an old athlon running CentOS with Snort (with a restrictive ruleset), my network consists of 2 servers and 7 other computers, the servers are 2003 server , testing 2008 server, and my old bsd box which is a small fileserver, and the other boxes are a mix of windows vista (all with the default firewalls enabled) , xp and linux. I plan on incorporating WHS , along with a new Xbox360. I plan on bringing my brothers Firebox cluster to my garage. --> http://a728.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/image...7545e2447e7.jpg

+1 for KIS! (Y)

[way2quik]

Hardware NAT + Kerio 215

[Xerxes]

The built in firewall on Trend Micro Internet Security has been the best one I've used :happy:

[Boo Berry]

Comodo all the way.

[Orien]

Router is all I need.

[TVH]

I use a Router with outpost v4. KIS and online armour need to be added to this poll - both of these are very popular.

[petralian]

At work I am behind a Firebox x1000 and that works very well ;-)

At home I would have my netgear 108Mbps router and Comodo for "full" protection.

[chevyordeath]

Router NAT + ESET Smart Security. Can't go wrong with ESET products :cool:

[RSilvergun]

Comodo with my router

[kinetix63 Veteran]

Kaspersky Internet Security added to poll choices.

[NEVER85]

ESET Smart Security. :)
