Hi Folks,

Happy Father's day to all the Daddy's out there.  This bit of news warranted a special edition - in my humble opinion.  I will be trying this if it is Vista compatible.

Internet Security's Best Firewall Option

There's something that has always bothered me about Microsoft charging for OneCare - which is like selling the disease and then charging for the cure. I've been accepted into the new OneCare affiliate program, and I'll offer it to my readers if you really want to buy the product (sorry, couldn't convince Microsoft to offer any coupons).

I was reading Scot Finnie's latest newsletter (a recent Mac convert, FWIW). He linked to a comprehensive Windows Personal Firewall Analysis (which I read with great interest). The "winner" was Comodo Firewall Pro v2.4.18.184. Moreover, this product is absolutely free.

Comodo is delivering this highly rated firewall free as a cornerstone of our initiative to empower consumers to create a safe and trusted online experience whenever you go online.

Empowering consumers?! Creating a safe and trusted online experience!? Are they CRAZY!?

Comodo's main revenue comes from authenticating Web business with SSL certificates (e.g. we put the padlock on Websites). The more consumers are comfortable being online and shopping online, the more businesses that will be created that will need our services.

Wow. Now that's a philosophy I can back. Too bad it doesn't work with Vista yet. Any personal experiences with Comodo Firewall Pro - or reactions to the tests from Matousec?

Have a good weekend folks.

More Next Sunday,
