kerio personal firewall

I have been using kerio personal firewall for some months now. I used to use zone alarm but wanted a change and i made a good choice.
Kerio actually blocks all website ads by default, so that is already a good point.

Its interface is easy to use and its very secure (so far!)

Hey frantic & Lyte and Others,


I myself can't see paying for firewalls. I know XP comes with it's own version. I have 3 PCs..2 with XP-Pro and 1 with 98 SE. I have used Zone Alarm ever since it came out. I NEVER had a problem. I have the highest security settings on my web-browser (IE, FF & Netscape). So......why switch with something that works ??

I would have to agree, there is no need to buy one as there are so many good, if not great if I can, ones out there that work just as well if not better. The only thing you really purchase when buying norton or mcafee is a name.

I have also used Kerio Firewall and it's a nice program. Got it after I had a new connection type set and I liked it instantly. quite nifty
