Is there something wrong with Zone Alarm? ;-)
Also, it was just announced today by Sunbelt Software that they are picking up Kerio. http://www.sunbelt-software.com/Press.cfm?id=134 - ferg
Hi Fergie, I quite like the fact that Kerrio is light on sys resources as not all my clients have grunty machines. However, even though I'm no l33t haXor (more a mere script kiddie with canned pen testing tools) I've been able to defeat it. As far as Zone Alarm is concerned: it is more demanding on sys resources and not as configurable as Sygate Pro, or as informative as to potential malicious action. I've only just started testing Outpost (on a 32bit machine) and Ghostwall (on a 64bit machine) but so far I'm quite impressed. However, the collective experience of this list is far greater than I could achieve in a lifetime so I guess I'm asking what others have found to be the most difficult to breach and featuresome.
