Advantages: Not eating much resources, quiet , effective

Disadvantages: You have to pay for it

Did you ever tried to install, set and run a firewall and by doing this not totally block your internet connection or used up your computers CPU / RAM. If you tried and failed then I have a solution for you - Sygate Personal Firewall. In my life I have only try 4 firewalls. One I don't even remember how it was called, one was Zone Alarm (that is on a second place of my firewall list), and one was something from Norton. And I must tell you Sygate beats them all. In the next few line I will tell you why.



Installation: usually when installing a firewall you must input your ports, proxy servers, and some other stuff. Whit Sygate instaling is simple as installing any other program. Just a few clicks and it's in your computer.



Monitoring your outgoing connection: When ever some program wants to connect on the internet Sygate will ask you if you want to allow that or decline that. You will se the name of the program that is trying to connect and you will see the address to where he is trying to connect. You then decide. You can also make that Sygate remembers your decisions sow you don't have to click it every day.



Monitoring your incoming connections: As simple as it can be. For every application that is trying to connect to your computer you will get a notice. You will se to which application and from where a request for connection is coming. Again you can decide if you will allow it.



Changing, seeing connections, seeing applications: when Sygate is running (usually with startup) it sit in the try bar and is really quiet. By clicking on it you can get multiple in formations about your system, programs, attacks on your computer. You can also change what ever you want to -and it's extremely simple to do so. Because menus are easy and simple.



System resources: Sygate doesn't use much resources. He really is on minimum, and I mean rally minimum. Your computer isn't even a bit slower when Sygate is running. It really isn't greedy.



This is the five main reasons to have Sygate as your firewall.
