Free firewalls list
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic3616.html
shows Outpost 1 as being the one to download.

I use free Outpost 2.7, it is good, no spyware, no calling home, fairly easy to work with and is ok right out of the box.

Considering this post

maybe it could be added to the original freewares thread.

The newer versions are timed trials. No longer free.

There is a free version available, but it is tricky to get to the right links and NOT get to a timed trial. It is also tricky to get to the link that doesn't go through "TrialPay" which forces you to accept advertising and, I think, even purchased products in order to get to the "free" software.

If you go here: http://free.agnitum.com/trial-pay/

On the left hand side near the top, there is a Blue Button under "Get Outpost Firewall FREE 2009" Clicking on the blue button will take you here: http://download.cnet.com/Agnitum-Outpost-F...&tag=button

Just below the blue button is another link with this text: "Outpost Firewall Free x64 Version" That link goes to a direct download.

Those two links are for the Free 2009 firewall, do NOT go through "trial-pay," are not associated with advertising, and also are not timed trials.

Orange Blossom is correct.
Definitely not timed trials.
I got their first 6.5 free build 2724, then another came out 2725.
No time limits, nothing. It's really a free firewall.
Logging isn't as good as in 2.7 though :thumbsup:
