Just try both and see which one suits you.

Re: Which Firewall? ZoneAlarm or Sygate

I use to use Norton Firewall, but i noticed if norton wasn't installed on my system after i had formatted i was getting 100kbps faster downloads,put norton back on and it dropped 100 kbps,so i use Windows firewall now but i don't have much faith in it.
If i install Zone Alarm or Sygate will my downloads/browsing slow down to where it was before with norton?

Re: Which Firewall? ZoneAlarm or Sygate

I have found Kerio to be the best. I ahve also tried Sygate and Zonealarm and I would have to say ZoneAlarm was my least favorite. That is just my opinion though. One does not perform better then another. Just remember a firewall is only as good as the user setting it up. What firewall you choose in the end is ussually based on personal preference like what UI you liek the best and stuff

I would have to say sygate. I have used both and find them both very good but think that zone alarm seems to be alot more hastle to work with than spf.
