Best free software firewall ?

Zonealarm is the one I've used recently. It works well enough.

 

Comodo is also good.

I'm looking for something with a little more functionality than windows firewall.

 

It's not important enough to me that I would actually pay for all the frills though. I'm looking but so far it's been all lies, not actually free, 30 day trials etc.

 

Are you worried about something out coming in or something in getting out?

 

If you have a router between your box and modem you don't need to have a s/w firewall as in pertains to anything out coming in. As the router firewall will block everything anyways. Now if you want to know whats in going out that's another story and a s/w firewall is useful on that level.

"I cannot profess to be a theologian; but it seems to me that Christians who believe in a super human Satan have got themselves into a logical impasse with regard to their own religion. For either God can not prevent the mischief of Satan, in which case he is not omnipotent; or else He could do so if he wished, but will not, in which case He is not benevolent. Fortunately, being a pagan witch, I am not called upon to solve this problem."
