I2,

BlackICE Defender is the consumer level product put out by
NetworkICE and the one you would install on a normal PC.
I've had it about two weeks and am pretty happy with it.
I've run it under some of the public scanning sites and it
protects against them, so I'm assuming it's doing its job.

FWIW, here are some other popular firewalls which you may
want to take a look at. Conseal is the only one which
offers a trial period before purchasing while BlackICE has
a 30-day money back guarantee. Not sure about Norton's
though.

firewall for experts)

and Norton Internet Security 2000
