It should be light, fast and free. Which is a good one ?

I use TinyWall for my firewall solution. I help managing a Web Hosting company that uses TinyWall for our game servers that run on Windows. It is also recommended by several technology sites.

  • Please don't do this in future. Comments are: A) overlooked, B) may be put though automatic/manual purge periodically.

    Why? Windows firewall is pretty powerful. Why replace it, and what benefits to does this have?

  • @Jacob My main issue with Windows 8 and Windows overall is that they tend to hide features within their GUI. TinyWall is minimalistic while getting the job done without hiding features.
