I heard BlackIce was useless. ZoneAlarm does a better job apparently.

This is why we keep BlackIce on all of our servers, and set it to accept
everything. It will still give you a heads up on potential bad guys and
allow you to block the ip address very quickly.
With all of the recent worm stuff going around, we decided to invest in
Cisco's IDS, and have it logging live to a SQL server database...very cool
stuff. IDS actually inspects every packet going across the wire and flags
suspicious traffic, which you can set custom actions to happen if a certain
flag goes up, like blocking the ip at the router. It even detects Sircam...
