[ersin9mm]

Dont But G-DATA TotalCare i have a license for a year and its finding no viruses but my pc getting fucked i think the firewall is shit

[plmi1]

I used ZoneAlarm with win2000 and XP. In Vista and now in 7, I use Windows' own firewall. I haven't had any problems with viruses in years.

[Questyman]

Comodo Firewall is the best, with Panda Cloud AntiVirus.

I have looked into downloading coral player but it's not compatible with mac. suggestions for overcoming this are most appreciated thanks

[winsevenholic]

comodo internet security 5.3 is great :)

[jonep775]

[DavidDaHoja]

COMODO is the best !!! :D

[x3DavidFTW]

Comodo firewall...<any good?

[happygamestvfun1]

2:36, Notice the way how he is about to say "It's kinda like having sex and not wearing a condom", but quikcly chnages it to wallking down a dark ally way, refuring to anus/vagina, as his mind is still set on his first statment, he then stuters and says 50 dollor notea haning out, with is out of context to his first statments.

[thepctechdocguy]

Is comodo firewall is good?

[StentorianODS]

Bro i am sharing my internet connection with my neighbor. but that crap has no respect, and he keeps on downloading all the big movie torrents all the time. I requested him not to do, but as I said he has no respect. Can you tell me how to block torrent download..please help me.

[StentorianODS]

Hi.. bro can you tell me how to block torrents to be downloaded? I have D-link DIR-300 router.

[Snorkai]

@StentorianODS why would you wanna do that?

[VideoGuyNC]

On the windows side - I suggest Sygate Personal Firewall. It's still available for free (even though Symantec bought them). Sygate by default locks every program until you allow or block them one by one. At first - you'll be asked every couple seconds (do you want to allow "insert software name here" to access the net or access your network? After you get it set, it doesn't bother you much at all. It's very good for free on windows.

[Robyourhouse]

the best firewall out there is ...YOURSELF. Theres no better security for your computer than INsecurity.

[L2DragonHunter]

VPN network FTW ;D

[7KillerRabbit]

check out this website excellent firewall gold great value

\

[ALzkryat]

What is the best firewall ever ?

[thereaperorsutch]

the best way to be secure is,,, don't save anything that is valuable to you on your computer.

put it on a memory stick or something

[tupacole]

i use Comodo for Firewall and Proactive defense,and Avira free for antivirus/antispyware.

[ProxyNuker]

Comodo Firewall - Paranoid mode

Avira Antivir - Maximum settings

Malwarebytes

SUPERantisypware

Best FREE setup IMO ;)

[mircir]

avast it updates a lot

[mmx327]

comodo>zone alarm

[pktrickz1]

some guy who joined was called illumanati anyone else notice that?

[alxz500]

@pktrickz1 And Paris Hilton wants to have a threesom with his wife!

[osmiley99]

i love comodo, i get free applications by blockin certain ones which are 30 day trials

[offen236]

comodo firewall is better than zone alarm pro.

[curemymind]

zone alarm? by for the best firewall that i've seen is jetico... zone alarm, comodo, kaspersky, and so on either tend to lag the pc or offer very little protection. but jetico seems to be too powerfull asking ur permission for anything that trys to run on the 1st time u install it.. malwarebytes is only a AV but its acting more like a firewall nad its protecting me nicely with no lag's so far.

[lucasmaddog]

I have kaspersky 2010 but that cost 50 a year. but if you want it free i would get AVG free disable the FireWall with AVG download ZoneAlarm free firewall. so now you have And AV and firewall. AVG does have and firewall but zonealarm is alot better.

[WeareClaudius]

I use Zonealarm it's so awesome, CPU power hog. Comes with a free PC tune up which caused untold errors and explained crashes. Before PC was new and run perfectly. Good going Zonealarm.

[TheZombieflesheater]

I use Zone Alarm Pro since Windows 98. It´s fantastic and very easy to use. If you use the one in windows you are in deep s**t. Try Comodo for Free and for payed ones I recommend ZoneAlarm Pro 2009 and Anitum Outpost Pro (the best out there!)

[Siberyah]

kinda entertaining with that chat going on ^^

i used to use zone alarm suite and it was great though it had one minor issue - crappy slow startup

[Nintendo4Ever85]

I use ZoneAlarm Extreme Security and I love it, its a very powerful suite.

[Kes19913]

yeah zonealarm is a great firewall

[wellzz1000]

Comodo Firewall Pro 3.9.76924.507.

[ryanbub1234]

I use Outpost Firewall Pro, its working fine.

[H0D0NKAIN]

I recommend ZoneAlarm Free version and Firefox web browser with the NOScript Addon.

-Works wonders. :)

[gameboymd1]

If you are willing to pay for good security, ZoneAlarm Extreme Security is great. I'm not spamming or soliciting this product, just telling you it's a good product, because I've used it before.

[tymanndavis13]

What you think about norton 360....

[uvmedraco]

crap, every1 knows that

[adam1611]

i don't like norton.. it's so slow and it feels kind of "not protective" ....... but that's just my opinion.

[himbri4n]

Yea I had a 1 year subscription plus the 90 day free trial and it did not find one virus or anything. I know mostly what not to do as far web surfing & downloading but I doubt that for a year & 3 months I had no viruses or the like. Worthless!

[computerglue]

recomended:i think u should download mcafee site advisor. avg version 1 or 7, use microsoft firewall if u dont have money. go surf on google. if u go ahead and add stuff on google, DONT maximise those things. norton security is also reccomended. dont EVER click any ads ESPECIALLY youtube ads, then you'll be pretty safe. but remember kids, on the internet ur never completely safe. :)

[scubdido]

Only Firewall:

if you got cash: Agnitum Outpost Pro

Free: Comodo

Internet Security:

Kaspersky

stay safe!!

[g0rsk13g4n9st4]

Best firewalls belong to either BitDefender or ZoneAlarm. They're pretty advanced, don't limit your web upload/download speeds and update every couple of hours, no one can beat them on that.

[PekuRules]

Sunbelt Kerio is easy firewall and its not asking anything!!! Simple firewall is what i liked!

Sorry my english suck!

[Wyzdm]

If one has Windows Defender which has a firewall and and ISP that has a firewall will they clash? Not to mention the router. . which I believe also has a firewall?

[chubzgsxr]

COMODO ENDPOINT SECURITY !

[tacitfun]

Ok - Go get a Zonealarm Z100g its only $150 and it is AWESOME!

[clonemate55]

TY for sharing lol :D

[staphinfection]

"just get a router"

Yeah that's all fine and dandy, EXCEPT when things happen to get on your computer from you installing something, and then they access the internet without your knowledge, then you'd have problems. A router isn't going to stop that, but a good software firewall would alert you to something trying to access the web.

[silelol]

off-topic: i noticed most of your videos are cluttered with a bunch of crap on the sides.

i agree with clone mate, if you don't go to "certain" sites and do "certain" things, the chance of getting a virus is very low. most of the time you'll just have to be smart. i mean, hmm.. firefox 5.0 beta..300kbs..fishy.. well also note that a hacker probaly can't use your connection if its dial-up.

(i base my thoughts on my own logic)

[Agent349]

guest ! AVG sux ! Avast is way better !!!!

[gyrotuffjonykirby]

HAHAH 2:31 = "Will a Firewall Keep My Girlfriend Out Of My Pants?" ROFL

[clonemate55]

i can name only 1 place wer u get malicious programs trying to get in ur comp........porn.......thats were almost every 1 gets there Trojans, logger, worms malware u name it u get it frm explicit sites... so plz stay away and get ur erm erm from stores -.-

[jellis1408]

Uhhh, not really. Although lots of porn sites are malicious, there are also plenty of rogue antivirus too. And that's not including downloads with malware attached to legitimate programs.

[ashliebrillault]

I use pc tools firewall plus (free) and it works great and it doesn't slow up your pc

[lindsaymobil22]

or mcafee for that  matter

[lindsaymobil22]

comodo internet security for me!! the best firewall ever!! sygate also good. please nobody touch norton!! thats dodgy!!

[StuPiDazzho]

I couldn't agree with you more ! COMODO I.S. is the best that I know of. I also have used Sygate as well.. which is also very good. Norton's and McAfee are resource hogs!! Woof woof!!

[HariltonSmythe]

zonealarm sweet made my computer slower than most viruses, i would steer clear

[Lumanatis]

webroot is one of the best still, zone alarm is good but is not always up to date, i would never uninstall the windows fire wall that it came, just turn it off if you have more than one

[guest2424]

Zone Alarm FREE, SpywareBlaster, AVG Free, Peer Guardian 2. These 4 apps will keep you from getting a lot of problems. PG2 must be temporarily disabled or add IP's to a whitelist for many apps to work, but when your not running apps, it helps limit un-needed traffic and keep your PC more secure.

[BIGBOYIE909]

haha i have zone alarm pro and avast pro and superantispyware pro and i love it haha

[biomorfo]

yeah thats true!!!!

[yotufreaka]

I use zonealarm, and found my ISP stealing bandwidth from me. Zonealarm FTW ownz!

[nickgspartan]

does avg 8 pro firewall?

[chrislyon06]

I use norton I hardly ever hear from it (not beacasue its not doing anything) its constantly checking and blocking stopping things.

[boazmoss]

lay it down pirillo

[Bullet246812]

hi i have a question, im using comodo personal firewall pro. should i disable windows firewall when using this?

[YouShouldKnowItsTrue]

avgs the best

[4543563]

AVAST OWNS ;-D

[War10CKr]

AVG

[mozzmanau]

Chris do you seriously know your stuff? Cos most software firewalls are crap. they pop so much crap up at you that your average user wouldnt have a clue what to ALLOW and what not to ALLOW. I work in the field and advise client to run a hardware firewall or simply use thier adsl modem with NAT. Symantec, McAfee and several others are absoloute crap

[iCONICAACINOCi]

Absolutely correct! And I the tech support and download site i-CONICA,net so I too know what I'm talking about. I've not once heard Chris actually give tech support. Even though that's what his site claims to be about...

[mozzmanau]

I think hes too scared about losing his sponsorship lol

[topex777]

i've been using zonealarm free version for 2 yrs. and i find it easy to use.

[millsto]

what Chris is trying to say is, "i haven't got a fuckin clue about firewalls, but i'm gonna pretend i do".

[8brokenwater]

RECOMMEND A GOOD FIREWALL CHRIS!!!!!

[mozzmanau]

LOL He cant, hes just a corporate puppet too scared of losing his sponsorship. He sounds exactly like a politician. Says alot and at the same time says nothing.

[iCONICAACINOCi]

My point exactly. :D

[Regunirun]

@mozzmanau Couldn't have said it better myself.

[sinisterben1262]

What about ca security suit?? are they good?

[alydhineds]

What about "COMODO Firewall Pro"? It's Free!

[thecmcolombian]

wow comodo firewall messed up my computer

i installed i restarted my computer

the firewall and the computer was slow

comodo was using the whole cpu usage it pissed me off it took me 2 days to disinstall it

[alydhiends]

u must have a slow comp, and uses the Advance feature of it.

[thecmcolombian]

lol no i don't there is something wrong with the

sofware the time i installed it i hav a firewall that uses more space and more ram and my comp is fast by the way i hav 4gb of ram

[alydhiends]

i've been using comodo for years now and had no problem with it.

[nagarjun424]

whats better? comodo or zone alarm? is zone alarm free?

[alydhiends]

zone alarm pro isn't free. COMODO pro is free.

[nagarjun424]

zone alarm free version or comodo pro?

[thecmcolombian]

i prefer you get a crack version for sunbelt personal firewall

it tells you there IP adress if someone is tryin

to hack your computer and you can block the person if they are trying to hack you.

[Rahhelthethird]

Both area good.

You won't have to configure anything on Comodo Pro, if you want to use Emule.

At least that was the case for me.

I have vista.

[wfd1234567]

i use zonealarm now thanks to youtube :)

havent had a single problem ever since.

[oakaleafy]

where'd you get that screensaver? It's so cool!

[Dejaiin]

Can he answer a real questions.

[KingSportsFan]

What about McAfee Firewall?

[CherryStadt]

The Mcafee firewall is more secure than Window's firewall, but it is "too leaky." However, it does full stealth and programs management. I'd Recommend DSA from privacyware, Comodo Firewall pro, or the webroot firewall. Another great one (no vista versions yet) is Online Armor free.

[CherryStadt]

"leaky" meaning that there are potential (theoretical) exploits to "fool" the firewall's outbound protection.

[CherryStadt]

Zone Alarm free is way to leaky, but ZAPro has great outbound protection. But remember, the "leaks" are mostly theoretical, unless you run no anti-malware and download like it's free cash.

[Daylitedave]

I am using Online Armor as Comodo was too in my face. I am very impressed with these guys at OA. I got the paid version which has a few more features like DNS Spoofing Protection and banking mode.

[UGDrift]

allu222.. you say you use comodo and it doesnt slow your system down.. its not about that you dick.. its if it can protect your computer which comodo doesnt

[mozzmanau]

Nortons is great if you dont want to use your computer anymore. LOL

[CherryStadt]

Both 2007 and 2008 versions are great improvements, but still slower than AVG or Antivir. Detection has always been excellent.

[mozzmanau]

Become a computer Tech and then you will see how much they destroy pc's

[polyphasic1337]

zone alarm is great!

[AJenbo]

Norton keeps spamming the user about any kind of network trafic making the user panic and calling tech support constantly for no real reason, oh and it's slow.

[DangerousPirate]

how about comodo?

[darcytirsia]

Chris

I had one recently called Spy Shredder.

[murderking1]

lmao "NORTON, norton" he says "norton theres a reccomendation", "Norton Sucks" lol, norton does suck

[murderking1]

2:28 was pretty funny lol

[Jacobdead]

comodo

[allu222]

i use comodo firewall and it doesnt slow my system at all

[Chrijz]

I like Jetico free firewall v1.0 (Jetico firewall v2.0 costs).

[coldkeyes]

That is random at 2:30. Its funny tho.

[KivaWolf]

2:30 "Will a firewall keep my girlfriend out of my pants?"

Now thats random! LOL

[CherryStadt]

Personally, I like having the XP/vista firewall on with a good HIPS (Process based security) like Prevx...all free!

[royalg2]

well thanks guys i think i will go back and try zonealarm again... Gibson is a cool dude

[djbrownpower]

Is a firewall even necessary for Apples?

[CherryStadt]

I think OSX has one built in - just turn it on.

[CherryStadt]

But it probably is similar to XP's firewall (just an inbound port blocker) - but that is all you really need if you are careful about what you run. You could run an anti-virus to be extra safe.

[carltardif]

Always love to hear what you got to say very interesting and informative thanks.

[Masterpower155]

Zonealarm monitors outgoing info .. I like that .. programs can't just "call home"

[joeltts999]

larvasoft personal firewall 2 is good

[Zoomrix]

This was really helpful. Thanks Chris.

[royalg2]

hmmm i thought chris was going to recommend a good firewall. i've used most of the firewalls mentioned and i'm still looking for a good one. currently using XP pro firewall :(

[carlystur]

I think ZoneAlarm works great for me.

[klockantre]

The risk of not having a firewall has got more to do with the computer literacy of the user than the system itself. I would say that the likelyhood of an intrusion is slim if you know what you're doing.

[mambachaser]

ZoneAlarm works well
