Macmillan BlackICE Defender Full Version for PC

Pros: keeps out wanna-be hackers
Cons: -0-

Black Ice Defender is one of the best firewall protection systems on the market today, IMHO. As soon as it was installed I noticed 15 attacks come in to my network setup. (That compared to the boxes notification that 4-5 a day is...

Pros: Are there any...?
Cons: Stop sending me junk mail!!!

I was looking for a personal firewall and a few people on Epinions.com had recommended BlackICE Defender and so, although I normally like to find a download that is completely free, I thought I would try BlackICE for the 30 day free trial and then either...

Pros: Very good defender
Cons: Still can be hacked

Black Ice is one of the best firewalls out there, in my opinion. Black ice has many options for users if they want to be very care, careful, or careless. The firewall can be disabled and it tracks everything that tries to get through you ports to hack...

Pros: Easy to Use
Cons: Not as Reliable as a Hardware Firewall

I've had my cable modem for 3 days now, and in 3 days there have been 176 attacks on my system. I should be worried. I'm not. I should fear for the safety of my data. I'm not. You see, I spent $39 and picked up NetworkIce's BlackICE Defender...

Pros: The warning (wav) file is somewhat annoying if you activate the sound feature for probes.
Cons: Without a doubt, the leader of internet security software.

O.K., you're a telecommuter on the WWW. All of a sudden, without warning and without your knowledge, someone probes your computer; gathering information about your system, email, and hardware.

All is not lost. In addition to your virus...

Pros: Easy to set up, does its job
Cons: Yearly fees

There are (in my opinion) three factors that should be looked at when deciding which 'firewall' to install on your computer.

1) Easy of installation. Hey, I don't care if the software (or hardware)is as secure as Fort Knox, if it's a bear to...

Pros: way to many to list
Cons: none so far

i recently got a dsl connection which mean im always on the internet and so are hackers.....so i need some proctection from people that way to hurt me and my computer.. so i decided to shell out some money and get black ice defender.

Pros: Worked better than we expected
Cons: None that I can see

After installing our cable modem, the guy who did it recommended this firewall. He said it was designed by a consortium of developers and that he thought it was the best on the market. So we went and checked it out. Very easy to download and self...

Pros: ease of use, inexpensive, customizable
Cons: may need to be tweaked with to work with some internet programs

BlackIce defender is a customizable software firewall that protects your computer from various internet attacks.

The best part of the software? It doesn't require you to do a THING. You install it, and it runs. You never have to click it...

Pros: Easy to use. Has online advice for each attack. Good graphical interface.
Cons: Not freeware..

This is a firewall for the private person at home.
It has good features like blocking NetBIOS and File Sharing services that is a really security problem in Windows.
The graphical interface is one of the better seen in firewalls. It is pretty...

Pros: Blocks hackers
Cons: Annoys you in file transfers

This is a great utility. It blocks off people from hacking into my computer. I hate hackers and don't undertand why they dont get a life and leave others alone. Well it doesn't work that way so there is BlackICE. It is an easy to use firewall. It...

Pros: Started out great in the beginning...
Cons: Updates made my computer a nightmare!

I purchased this as a download last fall. Everything went fine, worked great until... when I would get the latest updates! One of the recent updates included a "Application Protection" that took over my C:drive and asked me every two seconds if I...
