Hi, Thanks. I am going to stick with Sygate. In fact, I'll be purchasing it shortly. It comes bundled with PestPatrol also. I could purchase the firewall by itself for $39 or with PestPatrol for $59. I must say that I am real pleased with Sygate and the way it works with JAWS. The configurability is fantastic.
