Recommended Posts

Posted

Dear all.

I am interested in prices and availability for FIREWALLS in China.

What I need of information:

Are they available in China and if so also for Chinese Windows.

Are they specially priced for the Chinese market.

Do they have websites in Chinese.

If you can provide URL's I would be VERY happy.

The following firewalls would be nice to have information about:

ZoneAlarm Pro

Sunbelt Kerio Personal Firewall

McAfee Personal Firewall

Bullguard 6

Outpost Pro

F-Secure Internet Security 2006

Norton Personal Firewall 2006

Feel free to post info here and/or send it to me using

First thing: English versions of these software can be installed on Chinese Windows. They work perfectly fine. If you just want to type Chinese you only have to install the East Asian Language support for your windows (you have your windows CDs with you don't you?) ... and if some texts still appear to be complete rubbish you need to set your encoding for non-unicode texts to Simplified Chinese (Mainland China) or Traditional Chinese (Hong Kong, Taiwan ...). Both of these can be done in the Language and International Support in Control Panel. Your copy of Windows will then behave as if it were a Chinese version in almost all occasions, though the user interface is still in English (which might be a plus for you.)

The most popular firewall product in China is probably the Norton Suite (called something like '诺顿安全卫士' in the mainland) and you can buy it (Chinese version of course) in almost any shops selling non-pirated copies of software.
