Hi,
I keep cleaning my computer but pop-ups and Adware, among other things keep popping up. Winfixer is one of the worst.
I'm running XP and was wondering if anyone knew of a good Firewall that I could download (hopefully for free) that works well at keeping these thing out.
I'd appreciate any help. Thanks!
Take a look at the software forum.
I recommend Zone Alarm. Its the easiest to use and is the one I use personally.

zonealarm free edition will be good... things change... the professional version is bloated and with confusing interface...

zone alarm lacks security for wireless networks. I prefer sygate, but since symantec accquired them, strangely, I have been having problems lately.
Symantec aquired Sygate???
or is aquiring
according to Andavari, "Another one bites the dust to a Corperate Gorilla"
The acquistion of Sygate Technologies by Symantec Corporation can be viewed in this press release:
Has anyone tried the new AVG Firewall?
Has anyone tried the new AVG Firewall?
Didn't know there was one, I would wait a while anyway, until I read and hear more about it.
It's not a separate AVG firewall, it's the antivirus plus a firewall. It's also 50 bucks for a 2 year license, which means I won't be trying it.
I just started trying AVG Antivirus free edition and I like it..(for now)
you do know that there is a special Edition of ZoneAlarm that is made for Wireless networks right?
the pro edition also have...
ZoneLab's current software version of 6.0 is buggy..would wait until they fix all the bugs and come out with an update..which should be soon. There's a beta being tested right now and should be out shortly.
But until then..check out www.filseclab.com. Their firewall hasn't failed me yet..extremely light on cpu resources and memory..and its GUI/Interface is, if not as easy as ZoneLab's ZoneAlarm.
