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.

Dan
