Wa7idminuae Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 Hello People, I am on Vista Ultimate and bought Kaspersky Antivirus with free Sunbelt Firewall . I have been having problems with OpenOffice and SlLackware test torrents not maxing out my connection so I got adviced to uninstall Sunbelt Firewall . My question is what is a good Firewall that is µtorrent friendly and also Kaspersky Antivirus compatible. I have read that COMODO firewall is good but it is NOT Compatible with Kaspersky Antivirus and i have doubts about using Vista's Default firewall .Any suggestions of a good Free Firewall that's compatible with Kaspersky Antivirus and µtorrent-friendly at the same time maybe ?Thanks in advance .

moogly Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 I know a guy who uses Sunbelt Kerio (old free version I mean) with Kaspersky on XP SP3 and he has no issues with uT (green icon, max DL/UL speeds).Comodo is a good free one.Glance at this FW challenge:http://www.matousec.com/projects/firewall-challenge/results.php#firewalls-ratingsAnyway you need to search around the web about compatibility between one AV & one FW.

moogly Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 Try KIS 2008 no ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wa7idminuae Posted November 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 You mean Kaspersky Internet Security right ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moogly Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 Yep. The KFW module seems to be good as FW, maybe you can use it with KAV.Anyway KIS 2009 (new version) has been reported here as a possible source of freezing with uTorrent.So search in boards before to purchase this software.There is too AVG, not bad like AV.

moogly Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 There are many boards about security and firewall challenges, so this page may be easy to find with Google or several minutes of websurfing.Just type "firewall challenge" on GG and you will see.
