Anything is better than Black Ice:eek:
For those new to firewalls and their function, it's hard to beat ZoneAlarm. It has a very easy to use interface and does a pretty nice job of controlling things.
For those a bit more comfortable, Sygate does an equally good job of protecting and uses a bit less system resources although the interface isn't quite as intuitive as ZoneAlarm.
Free versions of both are available for download.
ZoneAlarm;
With over 90 million downloads, ZoneAlarm is one of the world's most popular Firewall software products.
for Sygate;
then click the "Download & Buy" in the navigation at the left. Sygate Personal Firewall is at the bottom of the page.
NOTE: Make certain Black Ice is COMPLETELY uninstalled before installing any firewall software.The reason a diamond shines so brightly is because it has many facets which reflect light.

mine being a PC with low amount of resources, i have always found Sygate more than satisfying. it surely doesn't have many wizards or colourful windows to configure things but then i don't want them :pLatest Microsoft Security Updates.
