App Review Sophos Home 1.0 (Prevention Test)

It is advised to take all reviews with a grain of salt. In extreme cases some reviews use dramatization for entertainment purposes.

What firewall would be good to run with Sophos free? Windows firewall enough, or do you need another firewall for protection.

I run a third party firewall,but if you are using Win 8.1 and above the inbuilt firewall is quite good and easily configurable!!
Or this,but you must pay for complete functionality!
I am not sure if Comodo firewall plays well with Sophos?It should,but others can chime in and advise,as I have not used it for some time!!

@Rod McCarthy: For safer from compatibility then Windows Firewall + tiny tool enhancement which only needs minimal maintenance. Usually a third party firewall contains drivers that sometimes can collide to other security products but in high chance of installation then they can play to each other.
