Zone Alarm is good...
I use it on 2 of my computers. a comparison of Zone Alarm I found a wihle back .

It's a PDF file that can be found at http://www.grc.com/files/grcdos.pdf .
I found it to be rather intresting. Sticking to the topic, on pg. 26 of the PDF file, there is a compairson (sp?) between Zone Alarm (free) and BlackICE Defender ($39.95) and the results are surprizing.

Just like they say XP's firewall is better than nothing but it is horrible.

Ah, the Windows XP firewall. The speed-bump to the internet . I prefer BlackICE. Nothing gets past that sucker. It gets extra points for the reference, too.
