The majority (all?) of the negative comments are from the personal-firewalls-don't work crowd. Take those comments for what they're worth.

It has its limitations, as I'm sure all software firewalls do.

Personally, from an operational standpoint, it appears to have a much smaller footprint the the ever-growing ZoneAlarm..

It does seem to have a following and is gaining converts from the ZA crowd. To me it still seems a little buggy and is probably overly complex. Also, there is no way to edit a rule on the fly, which really puts me off. But it is probably a pretty decent leak test stopper if that's what you seek.
