megadittos here. i've got a SMC DSL router and it's got a built-in one that works fairly well against attacks coming in by itself. i like using ZA for the sheer fact that i can manage which programs get access to the net and which don't. it's really handy for all those proggies that like to try to auto-register themselves. :D

Tiny Firewall is pretty damned awesome if you don't mind a fully configurable Windows firewall. Give it a try here.

I use ZoneAlarm 2.6.362 (the freebie of course) and it does a good job for me. I like it and have had no problems with it. The Pro version I used for a bit but I don't need all those options.
