Can anyone suggest a good firewall that works well with AH?

I've tried McAfee, Norton, and ZoneAlarm.

Thanks

If your having problems with all those firewalls it must be something else. I've had no problems with McAfee or Neo(something) in AH.

I had problems with AH using the free version of ZA and switched to Sygate which is also free and works great with AH. Check this link.

running zonealarm pro once you get the rules set right you can forget it is even there.

edit to add this - and it gets rid of pop-up ads/widows and most all banner ads as a bonus as well.
