This is mainly a bug fix, but it's big since 2.0.0.9 completely blocked the internet connection in many cases.

PC Tools Firewall Plus 2.0.0.12 released
Mar 14, 2007

Does PC tools use much in the way of resources? I had it installed at one point but that was when NOD was finding viruses in the previous edition so I never got to actually see it in action. Does it slow down the machine and/or use a lot of resources?
Thanks.

In the Vista task manager the PC Tools GUI uses less than 3 megs of memory and cpu usage fluctuates between 0% and 2%. I don't know how much memory the firewall "service" uses. I don't notice any slowdown when compared with Vista's built-in firewall.
Vista's task manager is useless wrt. memory utilization.
