I'm running Comodo firewall pro v3 on Vista and it's been fine. I also like
Online Armor and there will be a Vista compatible version in the near
future.

Which only shows that you never bothered auditing it.

Which supports my claim, since this one is even worse.
OK, one shouldn't expect much if any understanding of security from a
Windows Live Mail user... but please, if you have no clue, then please don't
make suggestions to others.

I saw you once post proof of concept code to prove that any software
firewall can be bypassed. Would you please post that again as I want to
read it again, thanks.

Hi,
for my part: first I wrote http://www.dingens.org/breakout.c (for IE6)
and http://www.dingens.org/breakout-mozilla-firefox.c (for Firefox 1.x).
After that, at least Zone Alarm and Comodo tinkered again. Then I wrote
breakout-wp.cpp - and they lost again.
This topic is somewhat boring now.
Yours,
VB.
