Okay, I have been having some problems with my computer being access though the internet. So I posted what was hapening, and was recommened Sygate's Firewall. I'm usin gthe free version and I love the program. Just one problem. It blocks my entire network from me (At least I know that it works :D ). I have the folowing setup.

Computer #1 (here) Main internet connection, plus family PC
Computer #2 I use this computer to save all my files to, like word, execl, frontpage, photoshop, gost img, ISO. ect. So when my computer crashes, I have a backup. It also has the printer hooked to it, so I need to be connected to it.
Computer #3 Internet only, I have disabled file sharing for it. I use it to download files, and then scan them to make sure that there are clean. I use AVG for that.

All computers will need to be connected to the internet,All of the run winXP,

I have the follwing programs in my sygate list that access the internet\network;
NT Kernel & System
Generic Host Process for Win32 Services
NDIS User mode I/O Driver
LSA Shell (Export Version)
Application Layer Gateway Service
IP Network Address Transator
I left out the IMs, Weatherbug, Updaters, ect.

any help on helping set this up, or recommend anouther (free) firewall?
