I remember using comodo at one time. Is fort the best you've had throughout the years? I've been searching for a robust in-host firewall for an ancient win2k8 server I cannot shutdown. I remember comodo had a verbose setting which told you what was being being blocked when it was being blocked. Was very helpful in troubleshooting.
Comodo was great until I've discovered it is using file system's altstreams to hash the files which resulted in sync programs constantly re-syncing all files. Naturally, when I start a backup/sync program, I expect only the last added/changed 1% to be transferred. With Comodo firewall installed, this wasn't the case. After digging for a way to disable that, I had to uninstall it.
Fort is my current number one, for sure.
Windows Firewall Control is good, binisoft iirc.
