An additional firewall to check out:
LooknStop.
I liked it so much that I registered it.
It's a rules based firewall with application filtering,internet filtering(rules),a great logging feature.
It's light on resources and has a 30 day trial.
Check it out,you may be as surprised as I was!
It has two sets of rules included.The enhanced rules pass the stealth tests.
There is an excellent support forum at the Spyblocker forum site.
Works on dialup,cable,dsl connection.

I use Zonealarm ( either free or register) and it has worked for me with no apparant problems ,if you register you get a few extra bits that are important and upgrades are on AUTO all the time.All the Web tests that you can use to test your firewall Etc. have proved that -I am a hard target- to crack
