My first firewall was Sygate Personal Firewall, a long time ago in a world far far away..

My favorites are Online armor, Outpost and Private firewall.

The good old days:

Too bad Emsisoft terminated the development.

For memories...last free OA from Australia...not from Austria

Associations arise only with Comodo Firewall and Windows Firewall. Comodo Firewall is more suitable for advanced users who like to configure everything manually and monitor each network connection. Although it can be configured to not interfere too much, there are whole manuals for tuning to work in automatic mode. And Windows Firewall is suitable for everyone, especially with the WFC add-in. A simpler option. For some reason, only these two programs come to mind

Something that allows me to block (temporarily or permanently) selected software or features. I tried several and ended up with the free version of Sphinxsoft Firewall Control.

I see many people liked Sygate .
If anyone wants to use it on windows 10 2004 .
You can get SEP from Unlimited Giveaway - Symantec Endpoint Unmanaged without time limit and use the firewall installation config.
It's kinda like sygate Enterprise on steroids since it has Symantec / Broadcom DeepSight intelligence signature IPS updates .
It can even stop a lot of pishing and drive by downloads thanks to DeepSight.

Comodo on proactive mode is indeed pretty strong.
It can block network activity of worms pretty well on cruel sister tests .
Windows Defender on the other hand while it doesn't increase the attack surface , it's still only a very basic firewall .

But usually people should invest in gateway security if possible .
Even using a 8 dollar pi alternative with some IPS like snort .

He continued to support Japanese until the end. When it comes to security software, I miss the days of xp, which had many choices.
