Firewall for vista

[shutter13]

I just bought a new computer that has windows vista as the OS. After installing zonealarm I experienced some serious issues with my printer printing VERY slowly, so I uninstalled zonealarm and it prints just fine again. So I'm looking for a firewall that's free and easy to use and won't create havoc with my other devices.

Any suggestions?

vista actually has a decent firewall compared to xp by allowing the filtering of outbound traffic. i think the default is to allow all outbound unless the user creates some rules, a third party firewall may be easier to use "out of the box" PC tools has a free version that runs on vista. see link:
