Sunbelt Personal Firewall 4.6.1861
(Category: Firewall & Antispam, Security, Useful, Utilities ) ( 379 Views)
What is Sunbelt Personal Firewall?
One of the best firewalls around and it DOES NOT slow down your PC.
Sunbelt Personal Firewall used to be called the Kerio Personal Firewall (KPF). Kerio was going to discontinue it, but Sunbelt acquired it from Kerio to save the product from "going under". We needed a new name, and changed 'KPF' into the new 'SPF' (so much for software geeks being creative...)
Despite its boring name, Sunbelt Personal Firewall is a very good piece of code, and received many awards. Tucows gave it their 5-Cow Rating. Computer Shopper in the U.K. gave it their Budget Buy Award with: "A seriously good firewall for the money.". Firewall expert Scot Finnie said: " ZoneAlarm Free and Sunbelt Personal Firewall - the two firewalls I've pointed to in the past as having the best user interfaces in this field".
What's New In The Latest Version?
The biggest addition is support for Vista 32 bit (with 64 bit support on the roadmap). However, there have been a lot of under-the-hood improvements in many areas. These include:
- Significant improvement in network performance
- Significant improvement in packet filtering
- Enhanced Process Injection prevents code injection attempts into Windows
- Numerous stability issues corrected in the firewall service
- Significant improvement in overall product stability
- Updated Intrusion Detection rules
- Updated translation files for multiple languages
Rely on the free Windows firewall?
Unfortunately, this gives you a false sense of security. It only protects incoming traffic. But outgoing traffic, with your credit card info, social security number, bank accounts, passwords and other confidential information is not protected. The Windows firewall will let it all go out. (both in XP and Vista) But... Sunbelt Personal Firewall will block that data if you buy the FULL version! You absolutely need a better, weapons-grade firewall.
30-day money-back guarantee
Compatible with: Windows 2000, Windows XP (All) and now Windows Vista. This offer includes one year of upgrades, updates, new definitions and tech support by phone, from real people based in the U.S. Below is the comparison of the "free" vs. the "full" mode. Believe us; with the crime rates on the Internet skyrocketing, you really want to get the full version of Sunbelt Personal Firewall.
