Comodo Firewall

Internet is filled with a lot of security threats. Going online safe has almost become a warfare by itself. A free antivirus can give you protection against viruses but not against intrusions. A good Firewall would be required for that.

Comodo Firewall Pro (CFP; previously COMODO Firewall) is a freeware firewall developed by Comodo Group that provides protection on a Microsoft Windows operating system from both inbound and outbound attacks. Comodo also has an open source firewall for Linux based systems called Trustix. It is one of the best free firewalls out there. You can set which applications shall access the internet.

While on a 2006 independent review comprised of outbound application filtering tests and leak tests, version 1.1.005 gained only a medium score, on another independent review based on leak tests in 2008, version 3.0.21.329 received 100% on all tests, the highest rating along with Online Armor Personal Firewall 2.1.0.119. Version 3.0 includes HIPS (Host Intrusion Prevention System) technology called Defense+, to protect a computer from unknown attacks.
