You can find it at www.sybergen.com . Just follow the links around for
"Sygate Personal Firewall," and you'll get to the D/L page. They used
to sell it for $40 I believe, then, they started giving it away to
individuals.
There's another free one called Zonealarm. I used it for awhile and it
was ok until I installed an SP on my win2k machine. The
Zonealarm/Service Pack1 combo were incompatable and cost me several
hours of work resolving an inbound packet issue.
One footnote from our local Cable Internet group:

If you are running Windows 98 1st edition:
Before even trying to configure the Sygate Personal Firewall (
http://www.sybergen.com ), save yourself a major headache and check for the
following:
IPHLAPI.DLL version 5.00.1952.1
If your copy of this file on your HD is the above version, the file MUST be
updated to a newer version before the Firewall will protect your system. I
spent over 3 hours trying to figure out why the Sygate website was reporting
my system as being open on ports 139 (NetBios) and port 8 (ping) before I
read a FAQ at their website concerning this file.
/paste off/
Good luck!
