I think Comodo Firewall is excellent, having tried and rejected quite
a few. It's fine control over inbound (easy) and outbound (harder)
behvior is as good as I've seen in a non-hardware firewall. The
package includes a pretty good antivirus program and excellent control
of local application behavior. You can install the one's you want
from the same package.

One of the things I look for in a firewall is whether it will let you
block outbound traffic to its own publisher. Most others including
ZoneAlarm fail this. Comodo gets it right.

Every serious firewall has its own way of organizing the various
options in its interface, so there's always a little up-front time to
get used to it. The greater the software's flexibility, the more
options there are, and the more there is to learn. For the amount of
control Comodo offers, the learning curve is not bad.

I could go on, but you get the point. The price is also excellent:
fully functional software for free. No, I have no personal interest
in Comodo other than as a pleased user.

It's one of the better personal software firewalls, and consistently so.
