@CharlieOrlando: The official word from Avira seems to be that the Geswall "trojan" was a false positive:
http://forum.avira.com/wbb/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=95652
Comodo's antivirus was also falsely detecting Geswall as having a trojan. The false positive was noted on their forums and I believe it has been fixed now. So I wouldn't worry about viruses, Geswall should be safe to use.

I would be very leery of downloading and using GesWall. Why? Because the latest version of Avira antivirus flags one of GesWall's component files, gswserv.exe, as being infected by the TR/Spy.Gen trojan. Maybe that's just a false postive from Avira -- but then again, maybe not. Until it's determined that GesWall truly isn't infected with the TR/Spy.Gen trojan, I would be careful if I were you and NOT download it.

Easy to install and configure. In fact, it just about configures itself. Needs to be understood that this is a combo of isolator (similar to Sanboxie) and a Host Prevention System (HIPS) that sits behind the scenes and will not come into play until some app shows some suspicious behavior. What I like about it, aside from its simplicity, is that it prevents access to the OS kernel, allows read only access to files, registry and processes - meaning good-bye to rootkits, keyloggers, and malwares. In addition, it also prevents restarts due to backdoor, zombie bots and worms. It may be a bit overwhelming for newbies, specially the Console and how it is accessed, but overall, this is an outstanding program for those who want top-notch security, and free for personal use.
