Yes, I use it and it gave me back my Eudora software. Don't ask me
how, it makes no sense, but for a year I could not send email with
this computer, XP HOME, 1Gig ram 2.1 GigaHz processor, using Eudora,
or PM-Mail, or Calypso, or Courier, only with Microsoft Outlook
Express, would it work. Weird, but there it is! Some how, it made the
differ3ence, and I like the interface with Window-Eyes, much better
than JFW since Window-Eyes seems to read the windows better when they
come up, and getting focus to the proper place is easier with WE with
a single left click on "allow," for example, and then the options of
handling the noted program can be handled easily. When you first
install it, oh sure, you're busy telling it all about what you want
it to handle and how, and every time you install a program, here it
is letting you know the X program wishes to run Y application and
modify Z place on your computer, do you wish to allow? etc.
It is good! I had problems with other firewalls allowing Magic Jack,
(not the windows firewall), but I tried Sygate, it's old but still
useable though not updated in 3 years or so, Look&Stop, which I got
to work but not with Magic Jack, (a V O I P phone service we use for
long distance here, but no help using Eudora, I didn't expect any.
Somehow after installing Comodo firewall, something changed, and I
can send mail again using something other than Microsoft. Also, have
full protection from unwanted installation programs running in the
background which could be catastrophic.
It is nice!

Hi everyone!
Well I'm very pleased to say that good free Firewall software is
again alive and kicking in the form of Comodo Firewall 3.0 which I'm
running here.
Accessibility wise? Well its no big deal, nothing that you can't
accomplish with We'S mouse pointer or WE cursor. A "pop-up" balloon
alerts you if the firewall requires your attention.
Now type in "Comodo Firewall"+"reviews" into Google and you'll soon
see why I recommend you give this little beauty a try, seems that
Comodo is very difficult to pass or crack.
