I'm kinda between firewalls, but donno which one to choose.
What do you guys use ?

I use a router board to do all my firewall work. It works really well and has alot of options.

What firewall you using?

Is it a Hardware or Software firewall?

Software firewall - Using Zone Alarm at the mo

thats a good firewall. Whichever one you choose go to Shields Up: https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2

They can test to see how good your firewall is...

Agnitum Outpost Firewall all the way

Check Outpost Firewall out at www.agnitum.com This firewalls got lots going for it and its worked briliantly for me ever since I started using it about 2 years ago and still no worries with it!

I use Trend Micro PC-cillin Internet Security 2006 as a total solution, AV and Firewall etc...

I use Zone Alarm, as well as Bit Defender on another PC in my house.

They all seem to work pretty much the same, but be sure to test with GRC like mav3rick said.

If the question pertains to a dedicated box then have a look at IPCOP. It supports plugins that can do other things like web caching, access control, etc. http://www.ipcop.org/.

If you are talking about a personal firewall have a look at Kaspersky Internet Security. Updates come regularly, better than others.

Dude.. welcome.. look at the last post date...
