I am trying to find a firewall that is simple and user-friendly to put on my sister's computer, as ZoneAlarm which I've previously used is bogging down everything and slowing startup times. I've also tried Comodo, but having a popup show up every second is putting the PC on too much of a lockdown. I am not sure if my sister really need a firewall beyond the one that comes with XP, but she likes to download lots of little random games and programs and I want to be able to control outbound traffic to block any programs that shouldn't be accessing the internet, although I really don't know whether and to what extent her PC can be compromised if a bad program can phone home.
