What, you want me to bash his brains in?


at least it would be more entertaining than all this *****ing and whining. lets try to keep it on topic now please?

Sure we can. As soon as you start doing as I suggested in the second post made in this topic which is coincidentally me suggesting that you use Outpost firewall which you still haven't, right?

If you have, you're just holding out on me! Getting me all excited for the end results! Now you know that's not nice!

yeah, I know what you mean, who would have guessed that a program called "outpost firewall" was a firewall? ::)

get commodo firewall! Or if you're on windows vista, it's firewall is decent enough provided you got Anvitvirus and some kind of malware protector making friends with window's firewall.

      Personally, I'm not a big fan of ZoneAlarm anymore (too bloated).  I haven't tried Comodo, though.

      A few seconds on download.com yielded:

      Part of the problem is most people don't generally deal with computer problems. So for most they think that close enough is good enough.

      I don't like ZA, either.
      I use Comodo on all my computers.
      PC Tools free firewall gets pretty high ratings.
