Long term readers of this blog will know that I am keen on personal security from the computer perspective and also that I am keen on windows users installing personal firewalls. My friends will tell you how often my eyes roll when they ask me to fix their unprotected machines. First I guess, a definition of personal is required here. By this I simply mean it is a software based firewall that sits on the same machine it is intending to protect. So I’m not talking standalone stuff like Smooth wall or Fire starter (both *nix based and free) and neither am I talking about the big boys of Corporate security such as Checkpoint, Crisco Pixels, Cyberguards, well the list does go on.
