| 65121 | 2002-07-25 07:20:00 | Hi all, just finished reading an interesting site on testing firewalls. The results were quite fascinating and surprising to say the least. I think its worth a look anyway especially for your people with "always on" Broadband modems. http://www.pcflank.com |

| 65123 | 2002-07-25 08:39:00 | unless there is a major change with blackice you will have been better off with the nortons. | tweak'e (174) | ||
| 65124 | 2002-07-25 10:12:00 | Very glad to see Outpost from Agnitum came up tops (free too). I think it was you tweak'e that suggested this firewall way back ;\. It is pretty user friendly for newbies and doesn't play up with WinME or NAV. | Jen C (20) | ||
| 65125 | 2002-07-25 10:16:00 | > Glad I got rid of Nortons and got black ice! if I were you I'd ditch black ice and go back to Norton's, or even stoop as low as going to Zone Alarm. My Recommendation though is either Agnitum's Outpost, or Tiny's Personal Firewall. Mike. |

| 65128 | 2002-07-26 04:38:00 | See how they run! See how they run! I think I might go play some solitaire instead.... |

| 65129 | 2002-07-26 07:32:00 | Is Blackice that bad - i thought it was good? Should I get rid of it then? Cheers |

| 65130 | 2002-07-26 07:48:00 | I run McAfee firewall, but as I hide behind an external ADSL router I only really need to worry about outward traffic - NAT addressing protects reasonably for unsolicited inward traffic. No test sites can seem to find the PC even at the ADSL IP location | godfather (25) | ||
