I've tried out many solutions as a backup to the windows firewall, and I have found that Comodo Firewall is the best one.
This program is not only FREE, but also packs a real time virus scanner, so if you're in need of both, then, there you go.
The only recommendation i would suggest is to only use the firewall, and to turn off the DEFESEN+SECURITY as this could get annoying (too secure). Just install everything, and then once the program is on the bottom in the task bar, right-click on the shield icon.
Select Defense+Security Level - then pick Disabled and there you have it. As a firewall it is flawless, asking you whether or not to permit a program to go online. This is very helpful because many viruses actually try to connect online in other to leak your information (bank accounts, passwords, conversations, etc.) or to allow someone else to take over your computer, in other words to hijack it.
Almost everyone after Windows XP has the windows default firewall, but still it wouldn't be a bad idea to have COMODO as a back up. So go ahead and download it
