Free Firewall
Hi,
I have currently been using McAfee Security Centre but my subscription has just run and I'm not going to be renewing it because of the cost, so I am now looking for a good free firewall to use in addition to AVG anti-virus. I am running Windows Vista and know there is a firewall installed on that, but does anybody know if it's any good?
Thanks

Re: Free Firewall
I've been using the Vista Firewall from day 1 of getting my Vista machine (24 months). Admittedly, from behind an hardware one included in a router and I have no complaints. Easy to configure, unobtrusive and hasn't caused any hassle with blocking required access - so far?
