Hi all,
Melih, many thanx to you & your development team for CFW. I saw reviews on cnet-au & softpedia, if i remember correctly, as well as discussion in another siteās forum, so decided to flick ZA Pro & give it a try. As a firewall config-challenged user, i find fine-tuning these apps daunting to say the least but installed it & tried to make some custom rules, (yes, i read several of the Help threads but nothing seems to compute in my head ???), which completely blew my ADSL connection away! This was last nite (oz-time), so i conceded temporary defeat until today, when i decided my best course of action was to uninstall CFW, run ccleaner, reboot & reinstall using default settings - the only mod i made was to uncheck the option in the Advanced>Miscellaneous tab for CFW not to show alerts for CFW-certified programs. Feeling very pleased with myself now coz allās running beautifully & i have no compatibility issues at all with Avast!.
Iāve read in some user-reviews where theyāve had problems uninstalling CFW & other horror stories but i experienced no such hassles with this current version. I also donāt have any service packs on my XP system, although i donāt know if thatās relevant or notā¦
Also received a PASS in EVERY ShieldsUp test at GRC earlier - according to their results, iām fully stealthed.
One of the sites i tried to vote at refused because the poll was too old - no posts for 2 weeks, so iāll just do so at any other site where applicable. Looked for the relevant thread at www.whirlpool.net.au (mentioned in a post by Arkava), couldnāt find it but found instead a thread entitled āPossible to not receive any junk mail?ā http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=628194, so used the opportunity to post a link to your AntiSpam Desktop app, whilst still managing to give CFW a plug (poster ID ābushgirl-saā)! Gotta start somewhere, hey? 
Anyway, thx again & cheers,
braindrained (R)
