Good firewall program?

hi !

thanks n8wing, no offense, but it´s "old" news.

but yes, it´s very interesting reading, i thought it was mentioned already in this thread too,
but it seems it wasn´t.
we already have so many threads about "A/V´s" & "Firewall´s", so it´s hard to remember what has been posted before...

there are a lot of "BIG" names a long way down on that list
at the top of the list are some FREE firewalls.

hmm ive bought a new car but i cant start it up.whats up?.....seriously, push yrslf into makin the description of your problem a bit better(error msgs etc)...

if i was u, i would try the "regular" procedure aka admin_rights&comp_mode.

btw: Windows 7 Compatibility PC Tools PC Tools Firewall Plus

i guess ur doin smth wrong:)))

Heres the breakdown of my attempts to get this(PC Tools) up.
Do I want to turn on PC tools. Clicked Yes
Do I trust the publisher and want to run this program. click ok
Do I want allow the following program to make changes to my computer.Click Yes
I go into control panel/security and both firewalls is off so I enable PC Tools,nothing.
I go into programs /PC Tools/says its disabled.I click on enable and I wind up with a white flag with a red X in the right corner of the task bar. I went into UAC and in compatability it says its not compatable.
Listen guys I've been around the block probably more than anyone on this site and I've installed many,many firewalls and av's and I've never seen this before on all of my years,so don't talk down to me.

ZoneAlarm,or maybe u can choose Outpost Firewall Pro

The old ones are the best, especially when they're still applicable. Yes, while the solution is entirely 64-bit ready, it also provides support for the laggards still using 32-bit technology.
