Not really a fan of windows firewall. I like to be warned when all unknown programs e.g. new installed programs try to connect to the net, then anything that shouldn't can be easily blocked e.g. spyware programs that might have accidentally been installed or came hidden with another program.

I just find Windows Firewall too basic.

Windows Firewall is pretty much the best there is, you just have to know how to edit it properly, all the settings are hidden away in the admin backend.
