Sunbelt Software Personal Firewall 4.6 3 User 2 Year Full Download
The Windows Firewall (both XP and Vista) is worse than useless, it gives you a false sense of security. Why? It only filters incoming traffic. That means if malware has compromised your PC, it is able to send out all your personal info. That's right; the Windows "firewall" does not stop that! But SPF...
Supports Windows XP and Vista Filters both ingoing and outgoing traffic! Keeps hackers out and your private info inside. Works great with VIPRE Antivirus + Antispyware Easy to use and does not slow down your PC!
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.
Something Else Important You Need To Know. This firewall has a companion product: VIPRE Antivirus + Antispyware.

Find Out How Bad Old-style Antivirus Resource Usage Really Is! Old-style antivirus products have stacked layer upon layer of engines, and created bloatware in the process.
