"I like It...BUT..."

Sygate Personal Firewall 5.5
Pros: Great free firewall, does what it claims and delivers. Cons: In Pro You need to clear its log files as when it flashes red in your icon tray.This may be why some experience slowing of PC. Other Thoughts: James from UK. Go to torrent site BTJunkie and you'll find a clean version of Sygate pro 5.5 there.Was this review helpful?   32 out of 70 users found this review helpful.

Sygate Personal Firewall 5.5
Pros: Personally I found Sygate Personal Firewall one of the best FREE firewalls that's out there. I don't understand why some of you complain that it slows down your PC. That's utterly ridiculous. Cons: None Other Thoughts: Anyone having problems getting this firewall you can get the latest free version here: http://www.oldversion.com/Sygate_Personal_Firewall.htmlWas this review helpful? 35 out of 79 users found this review helpful.

"Sygate"
by: Paul
Other Thoughts: I have used many firewalls but all have
fallen short in some respect. This one lets me block all traffic when I'm away from my computer, and its log files proves it. I have sat and watched my computer and have noticed no traffic in or out. I disabled the messages because it was anoying. I now have a quit safe running machine. Was this review helpful? 54 out of 105 users found this review helpful.

"Lets programs connect!"
by: deebee
Other Thoughts: I tried this and it lets certain programs connect without asking permission,Mailwasher for one. What else does it let connect without asking your permission I wonder?? I think this firewall is now so old it's nearly useless,things have moved on,and since it's not updated for a couple of years,it is now obsolete. I'll stay with Comodo 2.4 thanks!Was this review helpful? 54 out of 112 users found this review helpful.

"Great Firewall!"
by: Janus77
Other Thoughts: iv been using it for almost a year and the only things that bother me is the popup notice when its block program's access. but once u set them, than the pain goes away.
other flaws:
1.sygate support is gone
Symantec bought them and then embedded spf to their own uti program (whoa.. that means spf is great ain't it?)
2.need more advance blocking option
3.plain interface
good things:
1.so far its runs smooth on XP
2.less memory usage (wont slow u down like ZA)
3.discreet (only bother u at first)
4.little bugs found
5.its a firewall :)
Compared with;
comodo: shoo.. go away! go away!
ZA: is this a firewall or a mistake?
norton: well these two are brother xcept this one cost u (boo)
Conclusion:
Among others firewall, spf is one of the greatest.Was this review helpful? 45 out of 85 users found this review helpful.

"Sygate is gone..."
by: Ray Alex
Other Thoughts: OK heres what another user wrote :
"Could not get less than 1, could not stop getting in and stopped system working properly. help and support did not respond to enquiries."
Sygate is no longer provided any support on, because the worst of all security companys "Symantec" bought them and took them off the market. But the firewall can still be downloaded and it is still one of the best free ones ot there !Was this review helpful? 61 out of 108 users found this review helpful.

"Poor - Not the App"
by: James from UK
Other Thoughts: Poor - is for the LIE. SPF 5.5 is advertised when it is actually 5.6. As a windows 2000 user looking for 5.5 that makes me angry (CAN'T FIND 5.5 Freeware version ANYWHERE!!!!)Was this review helpful? 39 out of 82 users found this review helpful.
