Anyone tried "SoftPerfect Personal Firewall"?

[Thorsten Duhn]

Hello,

I wonder if anyone already tried (new?) "SoftPerfect Personal
Firewall"? Looks a bit like a simpler Outpost on screenshots.
Which would be promising from my point of view...

Main weakness is the lack of application rules - the rules for any
particular task apply systemwide.

http://winsockfirewall.sourceforge.net - Not much better, blanket
application permissions over systemwide rules.

Neither of these are a match for Kerio, Sygate, Oupost or even
Zonealarm.

thanks, that saves me some time testing this, that does
not work out for me also.
