yes i am using vista home premium, Vista firewall is better than XP Firewall, when you open a single program first time they always ask the permission. But Windows is Windows, you can buy a ZoneAlarm Pro which is leading No.1 Position. We are a Dirstributor of ZoneAlarm so you can contact me about the price.

Vista's firewall is quite good. I can't compare it to XP's, but it hasn't let me down so far.

Even XP SP2 firewall was good enough :)

yeah but it was one way only. vista firewall is better tho lacks some control. download this utility. its free and gives you more control over the inbuilt vista firewall, which i think is enough for normal home users. been using it. its adequate for me as i'm behind a dsl router which as a firewall too.
