Third-party Free Firewall Software for Windows 7

[Smiley_lauf]

Hi there,

When I used XP, i installed Sygate Personal Firewall or Kerio.

Now for Windows 7 what would you recommend? Is the built in Firewall effective or do we still need third-party firewall?

I was using ZoneAlarm from back in the late 90's until about 2008 ... not sure how good they still are.

i also used them before Comodo, but they are becomming a bit of bloatware, and not free [i'm talking about the suite, don't know if the zoneAlarm firewall is free?]

I'm using the Windows Firewall in 7 and I'm satisfied with it.

QFT, first time in my PC life that I'm not using a host of 3rd party security apps (apart from Avira) and all is well.
