Well, I don't particularly need it - I'm fine without one, it's just that I like to know what applications try to access the internet (to stop lame auto-updater things).

Previously, using Zone Alarm on 32 bit versions of Windows, but the last I heard, Zone Alarm doesn't work on x64 Windows.
I recently tried Comodo, but it's really annoying (keeps asking whether to allow svchost.exe when it's try to resolve domain names - keeps asking even though I've placed it in the trusted zone etc etc).

So does anyone have a recommendation?  I don't really need anything fancy, just one that can display alerts when an application tries to access the net, allows blocking, and assigning trusted applications. (basically, ZoneAlarm was fine for me).

Many thanks in advance :)

i use default firewall for my 64-bit

the question is
are there any decent partition managers for 64bit systems

fortknox firewall is very good.

Thanks guys.

Last time I had Norton (back in 2004) it installed more stuff than I wanted (stupid Recycle Bin "recovery" - I never wanted that...) so I don't exactly have a good trust of it (though apparently it's memory usage has gone down).

I'll try the other two suggested - thanks!
