    Best alternative to Bitdefender Firewall (of 2012 Security Suite)


    Bitdefender has dumbed down BDIS 2013, compared to 2012 - especially in the Firewall department. its 'Paranoid Mode' now apparently decides which software is safe or not, as opposed to when it let the advanced users decide what to allow...or not. Is there a free alternative (just the Firewall)? I intend to only buy the BD Antivirus module. The firewall should be two-way, and smart at learning rules according to the user's choice.
