Hi Graham,
Another one to try is Look 'n Stop, http://www.looknstop.com. I haven't
used it personally, but GW Micro seem to rate it.
All the best
Steve

hi Chris.
I am about to try comodo now as I have seen that it gets good marks. Most
people are saying that Seagate personal firewall is not a good choice and
others are saying that OutPost is too much bundled up with other security
products.
If Comodo is accessible then I will try and let you know my findings.
Regards
Graham
