I think McAfee's firewall is very good. It is based on NeoWatch, a firewall company bought up by McAfee.
I use NeoWatch, and it has passed all internet security test I have come across.
Infact, I'd like to upgrade to the McAfee one, cuz mine is getting kinda outdated.. But I'll be damned if I'm ever to buy it.. I bought my antivirus software from Symantec, and that's the first (and last?) time I've ever bought any software.
I'd stay away from disk cleaning utilities though, as they tend to fuck up a lot - at least that's my experience..

I know, but it's simply not good enough, so I've disabled it. Besides there are limited options in it, imo.

this is trrue, and is it good? i've always been led to believe that although it exists that it would be betterr to get an independent one.

yeah, actually the firewall in itself is quite good - better than I ever thought it to be.
