R-Firewall

[Bob Adkins]

This is a nice free firewall with popup blocker option. Nice GUI, well
featured with beginner and expert modes. "Ask" mode works really well for
outgoing and incoming. Fully stealth capable. 9MB installed, Clean install
and uninstall. Seems to not slow anything down. Been running it all day
without problems. Shields up reported only 1 port not stealth on my system.

Bob...

I recently decided to install this one and have a quick look. The
install went fine and rebooted, but when it came up after the reboot, I
got just one highly unuseful error message "Some error happened", and a
message requesting me to zip my log files and send them to the
developer. So I couldn't get it to even start up here. Some other
people have mentioned having the same problem as well. It's interesting
that you somehow got it to work. It did look interesting, but it just
won't run here...

Got a few dialogs stating "CRC has changed in Explorer.EXE", but they
stopped. Don't know it it's real or Explorer somehow changes itself causing
the CRC to change. Haven't checked the CRC before and after, but I will if
it happens again. Other than that, it runs just fine.

Nice find Bob, installed fine on a win '98 SE system. The presets are
very comprehensive, well laid out GUI etc.
