David, I too use vipre and really like it. When you first install it it is a
little annoying. The firewall requests access for your printer and many
programs. You only have to click on accept and remember. It caught quite a
few things for me.

Hi David,
I am using Vipre Internet Security 2015 which has its own built in firewall.
It does a great job, and I seldom have to create a web site exception for
the firewall to let some content that the program detects as harmful come
through. At the same time, it never lets anything that is truly bad through
the firewall and onto my computer. I have used Vipre for years, and have
made it through the times when it was less than accessible, but Threat Track
Security has really done a good job making it accessable again. Waiting for
the 2016 version to be released later this year.

I have been using private firewall for a few years with an acceptable level
of success. I am wondering what other people are using for their firewall
needs.
I know there are a wide variety of offerings out there although many of
which are not usable with a screen reader. The bad thing is that so much
time has passed my memory fails me as to what has already been tried without
success.
