Software firewall? ZA or something else? by Twitchh 2008-05-05 09:56:37
I'm currently running ZoneAlarm Pro 7.0.470, and have been thinking about trying something different for a while now because of how clunky the ZA interface is.

The thing (aside from the basic protection features) I like most about ZA is the "Hey, this app is trying to phone home!" warnings. I *hate* apps that phone home.

Any recommendations for another software firewall product that's at least as good as ZA for protection, and has the "no phone home" functionality?
