Decent Firewall for Home use?

[Positively Negative]

Hi guys,
i've just formatted my drive again and i want to try a different firewall. I previously used Zonealarm but i was wondering what the other options are. The main aspect i want from the firewall is the option to allow specific programs to access the net etc and permanently disable certain others.

Can you guys recommend some top firewalls for home pc use.cheers

Comodo has a free version that's quite good..

I've always liked Netlimiter.

Use Comodo and ZoneAlarm on 2 PC's at home, respectively. Both seem to be fine in the 3+ years of use

because there are some worms and trojans out there which is able to disable your windows firewall if you're not careful.
