Commodo is annoying and is always asking to grant permission to apps that have already been granted permission to. And dll components section is useless because most people don't have clue what each component is even. ZoneAlarm is far less annoying. If you are on XP or Vista just use the one Microsoft provides and use a router with hardware firewall.

Yep, actually liked it. But the reoccuring popups made me go back to ZA. Use ZA 4.5 now (6.5 is to much a resource hog, and 4.5 does the job by monitoring what programs access the net, as stated here over and over it won't ctach all ill behaved programs, but that's life :-)
