Comodo Firewall pro is a totally free, award-winning firewall.

I first tried out this program after i realized that the recent versions of ZoneAlarm were slowing up my computer a little too much. While ZoneAlarm is a great program, the version I was using was a little too much of a resource hog on my particular system.

So, in my quest to find a replacement I finally settled on Comodo Firewall as it runs smoothly, easily and doesn’t take up much resources.

The latest version is even better, as it contains “Defense +” an advanced Host Intrusion Prevention System (HIPS) that monitors and protects important system resources and guards against unauthorized system changes such as rootkit installations, memory injections, keyloggers and more. So rather than having 2 separate programs; a firewall and HIPS program. You get both in one!

Apparently, according to some tests conducted, it even surpasses the capabilities of similar paid-for software. Not bad for a freebie huh?

Basically, this is a very good Firewall/Intrusion Prevension System that’s both easy enough for beginners to use and also has plenty of things for the more advanced computer geek types to sink their teeth into if they so choose. It does what it sets out to do and does it well!
