You've been lied to, are lying yourself, or the update was not applied correctly. Trust me, I've been dealing w/ this virus on other people's computers for weeks now. It doesn't morph and it doesn't "blast" through a firewall. The virus does not run different on your machine than everyone else's. If you can find me one article that describes this virus getting through a patched machine, I'll believe you.
nitro, http://www.netgear.com/products/details/WGR614.asp?view= http://www.netgear.com/products/details/WGT624.asp?view= These ere are the two models that I had been looking at. They seem to have rather good firewalls. I would appreciate any comments. Thanks. nononsense
You might want to test out some of your vulnerabilities. Check here: http://www.computercops.biz/link-12.html&orderby=dateA Hope this helps!
Both of those would be adequate as hardware firewalls and are comparable to the Sonicwall. The only thing that I could not tell is what software OS they are running, which is not a trivial thing. nitro

Do a search on "firewall" and "nitro" if you want more history. nitro
I highly recommend the SonicWALL: http://www.sonicwall.com/products/soho3.html I've run a LAN behind one for several years now and have never had one single hardware problem or security breach. The SonicWALL is a ICSA certified stateful packet inspection firewall that also handles NAT, DHCP, VPN, etc. It's highly configurable, and has an extensive management interface. It emails a log each day, and can also give real-time alerts. They also offer Anti-Virus and Content Filtering as add-ons. I researched it pretty well before I bought it, and it's the total package. I also like ZoneAlarm software on each PC for flexible and immediate control of outgoing connection attempts on a per-application basis.
Have a look at the Hotbrick VPN 600 www.hotbrick.com It's a firewall and Dual Wan Router so you han manage two broadband connections for redundancy. Runningbear
