Morning everyone:
Attempting to research firewalls last night I ran into some difficulty finding information. Seems that information on firewall functionality and implementation strategy is lagging far behind that of anti-virus, especially in the area of freeware firewalls.
That in mind, the questions is: Is Comodo as good a firewall program as Avast is an anti-virus program? Further I'd like to know if anyone can make a comparison between any of the free firewalls and Avast or another top anti-virus when it comes to detection and prevention of attack. When there is a danger with Avast, the program makes sure you know that there is a threat. Are any of the firewall programs as effective at informing a user of a "real" threat?
Also, Avast is a program any beginner can use more or less. Is there a firewall that out of the install compares with the effectiveness of Avast or of any of the other top anti-virus programs?
Avast is a very good program. The developers have found a way to mesh effectiveness into an interface that is simple enough that anyone can use it. I'd like to see the same thing from a firewall, but the only one I have tried so far is Comodo, and it was too heavy to run and too difficult to set up for me. That was a while back, but the memory lingers...
