    What do you guys recommend for a free firewall? Do you prefer Zone alarm or Comodo? I appreciate any positive responses.

    Zone Alarm has caused problems in it's various versions in the past, witness threads on the BBS and I would steer clear of it

    My money's on Comodo - highly rated, compatible with both XP and Vista and used on my laptop and Vista tower. Doesn't seen to be too intrusive and has a small footprint.

    For everyday use I use Eset, but that's pay software.
