tiny personal firewall

anyone have any experience with it? here's the problem:

when i run AIM (that new 5.x expressions version), the TPFW popup comes up, and then it just crashes. i can't kill aim.exe or the firewall, and well, the system just borks so i have to press reset. it won't even shut down gracefully.

so fine, i add aim.exe to TPFW's applications list and it runs fine. but NONE of the firewalling rules work. it's like AIM is bypassing everything or something.... any ideas?

btw, OS is XP SP1.

I use ZoneAlarm Pro. This is the first I've heard of TPFW.

SUCK IT AIM HAHAAHAH

i figured it out :D

I use Kerio which is the "commercial" version.
I also use Trillian to access people with teh AIM.
Never had the symptom you mentioned.
