what is the best firewall that use low pc resource. I found zone alarm uses alot and make my pc hang when it boots up any sugg.?
Your sure about that, What OS are you on?? All Zone Alarm runs is 5,000k for Zlclient.exe, that wont hang your pc, well shouldnt do if it meets the min requirement... You can try: Jetico Personal Firewall http://www.jetico.com/index.htm#/jpfirewall.htm SoftPerfect Personal Firewall http://www.softperfect.com/products/firewall/ Wyvern Firewall 2004 http://www.wyvernworks.com/firewall.html For tiny firewalls, they do the job and should be quite light. I doubt ZA is hanging your pc at start up, Go start > run > msconfig, click on the start up tab and tell me whats there(in XP that is).
maybe try this one, i dont personly need a software firewall but hear good things about it. http://www.webmasterfree.com/tpfw.html
sunbelt kerio firewall is great and free too.Download the pro trial and when the trial is up it runs in free mode which has all the basics you need and more.It's not a ram hog either.
