Default Norton Internet Security firewall Vs Zone Alarm free firewall

I've been using Norton until now but was thinking of trying something else.
How does the free firewall from Zone Alarm compare to it?

Cheers.

It doesn't tie itself into everything unlike Norton.

If you want an easy to use, low-resource, very effective firewall,
check out the Sygate Personal Firewall. It. like ZA, is free.

I'm going to die rather sooner than I'd like. I tried to protect my
neighbours from crime, and became the victim of it. Complications in
hospital following this resulted in a serious illness. I now need a bone
marrow transplant. Many people around the world are waiting for a marrow
transplant, too. Please volunteer to be a marrow donor:

Right you are .... the sygate.com website says they were acquired by
Symantec.

Luckly, the free personal firewall is still available.
