User reviews of Sygate Personal Firewall 5.6.2808
Solid protection but to expensive.
Pros: This firewall works like all software firewalls should. It has a nice GUI and passed every test I found to throw at it. It's easy to use and remembers your settings. If you still use "XP" and are willing to shell out $40 bucks for an application of this type then go for it. It is a very good software firewall.
Cons: I have a few issues with it though. First, the price. For $30 dollars more you can get "Kaspersky Internet Security 7". For about twice the cost of this firewall you can buy an encrypted router with a hardware firewall and never have to invest in this type application again. For an "XP" system theres "Comodo firewall Pro". It's free, and just as good as this one. Lastly, I haven't yet been able to locate a "Vista" compatible version and "Vista" is all I use now. I do have a hard drive with "XP" on it that I use on occasion for testing "XP" software. but can't understand why some companies haven't come out with versions compatible with both operating systems.
I have Comodo and hate it!
I can't figure out why anyone would want Comodo; it NEVER remembers my "allow" list. It is constantly asking if IE, Firefox, Avast, etc. can connect. Maybe I have not figured out how to use this complicated firewall but it's gotten to the point where I am ready to go back to Windows firewall.
