Advantages: One of the strongest firewalls on the market, solid, free

Disadvantages: Defense+ is not for beginners

I had been using the McAfee firewall that was provided for free by AOL, but after switching to SKY broadband I needed another free firewall and decided to try Comodo Pro.

I'd read a lot of good user reviews about Comodo Pro in many magazines, forums and sites including download.com.

I've had Comodo Pro installed for the last 6 months, it installed with no problems at all, at first it does ask a lot of questions but this is the same for every firewall with outbound protection, it quickly learns and now quietly protects my PC only popping up when updating or installing new software, when this happens it simple a case of switching temporally to installation mode.

Comodo is the best firewall I've ever used its very light on system resources, rock solid and is the only firewall to pass all of the Atelier leaktests, if you are sure your computer is clean you can set Comodo's defence+ module to clean computer this will assume all files currently on your PC are safe therefore reducing the amount of warning messages.

Comodo Pro is completely free and its rated the number 1 free firewall in the firewall challenge:

If you are looking for a firewall try Comodo first you will not be disappointed.
