    Hi,
    I am interested to know what Firewall everyone uses?

    I use Outpost Firewall.

    What do the experts recommend?

    Thanks

    Hardware based. Most solid, secure (if configured right), doesn't eat sys resources by being installed on a machine since it can't be and highly configurable.

    I use Omniquad for WinXP and Sygate for Win2000 and ME. Sygate seems to cause errors in XP.
