I have had Kaspersky (crap for me using Bitcomet), Zone Alarm Security Suite 2005(pretty good), Norton Internet Security/Antispam Pro/Antivirus Pro 2005 (meh, it's okay), but I have yet to try PC Cillin or McAfee. Which ones are you all using? I have Windows XP Home, and I am using an SMC2804-WBR v2 router that is correctly forwarded, so I know that the firewalls make a difference. How is Windows Firewall with Bitcomet speeds? I don't really want to use it now that I have Norton because I heard it really sucks. However, will it allow me to get good speeds? Usually with ZA I got 120 kb/s or something like that, Norton gives me 70-80 kb/s, and Kaspersky gave me 2 kb/s or something like that. Anyone using PC Cillin, McAfee, or Windows Firewall?

Uhm....PG2 is great, but it is NOT a firewall.

NOT, I repeat NOT a firewall, and should NEVER be used in place of one.

And, for what it's worth, it's your imagination that the firewall is affecting your d/l speed. If it is, in any way, you don't have it configured correctly.
