I am really looking for a Server specific solution....
Zone Alarm works somewhat but they shim the stack and every MS update seems
to move the shim. I am having to reinstall after every update or I get
unusual shutdowns and other errors. On top of that, they do not support the
product on Server OS's and it says so specifically when install is run
although it will go ahead. The other products mentioned are Desktop
solutions also, I know there are some specific server endpoint apps..I guess
I need to know of someone's personal experiences. Thanks for the responses
so far.
