0 leedogg Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 I'd go with sygate. heck the free version is even newer than the pro version. kpf 2.1.5 hasnt been updated in years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 MitchA Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 I have used sygate in the past and I really liked it. I would suggest that over Zone Alarm anytime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The version 2.1.5 is final, tiny, no bloat and so fast the updated version around version 4 or something I don't think you can download version 2.1.5 anymore unless you still have it somewhere in your HD or backup cd ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Daybreak Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 2.1.5 may be outdated, but its good stuff. Its minimal, does only one thing (firewalling) and does it pretty well (for me at least anyway). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 lnmnky Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 Is there anny good free firewalls other than zonealarm which is crap and doesn't support internet sharing :(I;d like one that scans emails aswell and be quite easy to use. 584859862[/snapback] Ummm Zonealarm does support internet sharing BTW. At least it did when I used to use it. I used it between version 3 and 4, then stopped at 5 beta which was a little buggy. Kerio then seemed easy and a little prettier and been using it for a while now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
