Personally speaking, I would install the following free Firewall, namely Comodo Firewall Pro. Naturally, uninstall any other Firewall, including disabling XP's native Firewall, prior to installing any other Firewall: -

After you have downloaded Comodo and disconnected from the Internet, uninstall any other third party Firewall, or disable XP's native Firewall via Security Centre in Control Panel, install Comodo Firewall, reconnect to the Internet, and update it, as, for example, Comodo's Firewall Pro includes a malware/virus/spyware scanner, that needs to be updated on a daily basis.

Good luck.

Hiya,
Thanks for your reply,
I have unistalled zone alarm and turned off the xp firewall and rebooted.
When I tried to install the firewall you recommended I got this error message.
Error 0 running command CFP setup-I havent a clue what this means?

Did you download and install the 32-bit Setup or the 64-bit Setup? It sounds like you installed the 64-bit Setup instead of the 32-bit Setup, IMO.

Try to reinstall Comodo Firewall Pro using the following link and clicking on 'Download Comodo Firewall Pro FREE!': -

You're welcome, smithy. Do you have an update on your issue?

Every thing is good now thanks.

Did you end up installing Comodo Firewall Pro, smithy?
