There wasn't enough information in that thread to make a decision? I have used both Comodo and Zonealarm and am currently using Zonealarm. Moved to appropriate forum.

Got it. Last question and unrelated to the thread. How is it that your title changes. Last week I was a newbee and now I'm a Junior Member. What are the rules for title change.

you had comodo and ZA, one of those should do. outbound filtering is really only useful when the malware is already on your computer and of course by then-- its to late.

Remember, you are only supposed to have ONE firewall on, multiple firewalls can cause conflict.

Windows and system security is my priority.
