Zone Alarm Pro is my software firewall of choice. I use Zone Alarm Pro on all of my computers and every computer I've built for my family members. I use it for my Mom's computer so you know I believe in it.

Here is my favorite feature of ZA Pro, by right-clicking on the toolbar icon you can instantly shut down all internet activity. As in NOTHING comes in or out!

ZA Pro works perfect with and has specific settings for Windows ICS (Internet Connection Sharing), is easy to set up and maintain, stops pop-ups, protects privacy, and has one sweet cache cleaner. You can set it up so that it requires interaction from the user for everything (like I do), or so that it requires almost no interaction on the users part (like I set it up for my Mom), or something in between.
