bosquedog,

I tried Zone Alarm several months ago but decided that I preferred Tiny Personal Firewall. I really like the ability to define my own rules and to block/filter specific ports. I haven't detected any problems with Tiny Personal Firewall conflicting with other software.

So far, the biggest slowdown that I can detect that relates to SurfinGuard occurs when I used IE "Tools/Internet Options/Delete Files" to delete temporary files. It appears to take about 50% longer to delete these files that it did before I installed SurfinGuard. I assume that is because SurfinGuard carefully monitors these files.

B.K.
