The new tests and improvements published three weeks ago examined the tested products very well. The total score of all products went down, more or less. This is why we have removed the results of ProSecurity 1.43, which is a dead product and can not be tested against new tests, hence its excellent score achieved a very long time ago is not comparable with the score of the other top products that faced much more sophisticated tests. When a stable public version of ProSecurity's successor – Real-time Defender – is available, we will test it as soon as possible.

The power of the new versions of the tests removed the Excellent rankings from all the leading products, except for Online Armor Personal Firewall 3.0.0.190, which finished with the score of 93% and became a new leader of Firewall Challenge. Online Armor lost 5% compared to its previously tested version. The second best result today is Very good score of 89% that belongs to Outpost Firewall Pro 2009 6.5.2358.316.0607. Outpost lost 10% and leaved the first position but its result is still remarkable. Even more, 11% of the total score, was lost by Comodo. Comodo Internet Security 3.5.55810.432 scored 84%, reached a Very good level of protection and the third best score today.

Privatefirewall 6.0.20.9 finished close to Comodo with the final score of 82%, which is 8% lower score than of its previously tested version. The fifth best product tested today was Jetico Personal Firewall 2.0.2.7.2311. Jetico lost 6% and finished with the score of 72%, which is a Good protection level. A Poor level of protection and the final score of 54% was achieved by Webroot Desktop Firewall 5.8.0.25.

Sunbelt Personal Firewall 4.6.1861.0 and Mamutu 1.7.0.23 failed the tests completely. Sunbelt finished with 5% and Mamutu reached only 2% score.

Today's testing focused mostly on the leading products. The next update will focus on those products that are at the top of the result table but have not been tested against the new versions of tests yet.
