Personally I think Comodo FIrewall and Spyshelter Firewall can be considered as alternatives. Because just like Outpost Firewall, these two products have firewall and HIPS modules. Please note that the firewall of Spyshelter may not as strong as Outpost, since it does not support port rules, and does not have the IDS module.

Comodo is Free, while Spyshelter sells lifetime licenses for both 1-PC and 5-PC.

PrivateFirewall could also be a good and free solution of Firewall+HIPS, but I am afraid that it may not be able to satisfy your requirement of "actual upgrades".

Both of them can work with Sandboxie. However, in Comodo, you need to exclude Sandboxie from the Shell Code Injection.
What are your thoughts about using Kaspersky, as it's being offered?

@tlacenka needs a product that can work with Sandboxie, while in my tests, even Kaspersky Free Antivirus could conflict with Sandboxie in Win 8.1 (they can work with each other in Win XP).

I believe this subject has been sufficiently covered in this thread.

Thanks for quoting my post.
As I did mention in my post above, I would stick with Outpost,as I don't use its AntiSpyware module.
While checking Private Firewall, I saw that it hasn't been updated for years.
Also current Outpost Firewall license, if not exchanged for KIS, would stand good for ever.

Zonealarm so far can considered active in development but techniques are not so complex compare to PrivateFirewall and Comodo.

As always the drawback of not updating are bugs but the performance may retain same with proper configuration.

Lifetime licenses with good support and on-going updates are very, very few.
  • Adguard (Lifetime license, includes updates and good support)
  • AppGuard (Lifetime version license includes minor updates and good support; license lasts at least a few years if not longer)
  • BiniSoft's Windows Firewall Control (Lifetime license with Unlimited installs, includes updates and good support)
  • NVT ERP (freeware)
  • ShadowDefender (Lifetime license, includes updates and support)
  • Sandboxie (Lifetime license, includes updates and online support - you already have)

AppGuard + Sandboxie + Adguard + NVT ERP + WFC = solid base-line protection.

You can add HMP.A to make it even more solid. You can subscribe or request beta tester's license).

You always do Qihoo 360 Total Security or COMODO... both freeware.

there is one other other vendor , that offers a " lifetime" license ( be sure to read the product policy closely and what that company regards as lifetime ) and that is for Vipre internet security / antivirus. a small example : when you have bought a lifetime key for 1pc of 1 of their products and your system breaks down , you cannot transfer your license to a new machine. even when you contact customer support : you will have buy a new license! it's a so so product in terms of protection / detection.
