Either Outpost or Look N Stop are great FW's. Mostly all the major FW's are
equal in preventing inbound attacks- the important thing is to get a FW that
is good at protecting against unsolicitated outbound traffic.

A good way to test FW proficiency is by the various firewall leaktests-and
both Outpost and LNS come out on tops by far. Outpost has alot of neat
plugins, but uses more RAM than LNS (Look N Stop takes up about 7000K); it
also is sometimes annoying with the alert popups when using installed
software.

Both are easy to set up and great choices.
