The Windows XP Firewall is worse than useless, it gives you a false sense of security

Why? It only filters INCOMING traffic. That means if malware has compromised your PC, it is able to SEND OUT out your credit card data, and all other personal info. That's right, the WinXP "firewall" does not stop that! But the Sunbelt Personal Firewall (SPF) DOES filter both in- AND outgoing traffic. The SPF two-way firewall keeps hackers out and your private info inside.
 

Fantastic News: CNET chose CounterSpy as their Editor's Choice.
They said: "For antispyware protection, CounterSpy 2.0 comes out on top in our current CNET antispyware tests. We were pleasantly surprised by Sunbelt CounterSpy 2.0. For $20, you can't get better antispyware protection." CounterSpy is the right choice. This is 20 bucks that might prevent a whole lot of trouble, so think about giving CounterSpy to your friends and family as well.
