I use Sygate firewall and AVG antivirus 7.1 at the moment, haven't upgraded to 7.5 yet. I like AVG so it may be worth paying the money and going with an antivirus and firewall all in one. I remember a few weeks back on the list somebody mentioning a firewall along the lines of stop n go?

Hello Dean

It is not free but I found that AVG's Antivirus and firewall is real nice.

The firewall is very accessible.

It seems like all of the products are very easy to get around in with jaws.

Hi,
For about 5 years I've used Zone Alarm even though its not fully
accessible.  I found being able to choose what to allow access to or
not fine for me when the dialogue box popped up as long as I didn't
accedentally make a mistake.  Then my Trekker wouldn't sync so I
uninstalled Zone Alarm and found that to be the problem and put
Sygate in its place.  I know that isn't being updated any more
because of Symantec so is there a good alternative which is still in
production?  It'd be good if its a free one but I'd be happy to pay
as long as it does the job and has a good reputation.
