I'm currently using ZoneAlarm Security Suite firewall that also comes with antivirus and antispyware and it seems to be taking a lot of my system resourses and slowed down my pc by a bit. Granted, i have it set to auto-learn programs which it does for the 1st 21 days, i heard that after that period it starts taking up less resourses, i have 5 days of auto-learn left, so i guess will see. But if it won't i'll consider another firewall, thats why i brought this up. By the way, i'm not paying for ZA, my dad got a 3 pc license which cost almost the same as getting it for 1 pc. Also, i've heard that antivirus software built into ZA is not that good, i wouldn't mind going back to AVG. So what firewalls are considred the best, among both free and paid ones?
