Internet security is, of course, a hot topic right now.
I chose not to touch on either ConSeal or BlackICE, since they're too expensive for my taste. My hope is that this column will offer you a little more information than you'd find in similar columns elsewhere, rather than simply churning paragraphs for the sake of a deadline. I simply found that to be unacceptable, so I expanded my search to finding source code for firewalls that I could build. While I did find some firewall projects, they were all UNIX-centric. My good friend Joe Berry was himself the unwitting victim of an attack last year.
