I have not tried it but would suggest sticking with ZA or trying Sygate if
you want something that has more logging and features. ZA seems to be about
the easiest to use out of the software firewalls I have tried and offers
good protection and there is a lot of support available for it via forums,
etc. The same goes for Sygate. Both have free for personal use versions.
Certainly try Sensiveguard if you want as you can always uninstall it. ----
