Firewall question.

Hi. Does anyone know a good firewall program? One that doesn't hog up too much RAM and doesn't have too much bloatware? I just want a plain and simple firewall that is good.

Thank you,
Daniel

Hi. So I should just use Zone Alarm? Does Zone Alarm hog up a lot of RAM?

Thanks,
Daniel

I think ZA is less bulky than Norton, McAffee and Panda. Sygate is probably smaller, but personally I don't like it.

You can always install the Free or Trial version to test it.
