ClarkConnect already did this...so I guess they'll have to be second place.

I'm not all that familiar with ClarkConnect so I thought I'd check it out. According to their site:

"The intrusion detection system can be used to detect spyware and contain virus infected computers. Using a modified intrusion prevention system and some existing rules is all that it takes!

Watch this page for details and downloads. March 1, 2005

This project is on hold for now."

So ClarkConnect is saying that at some point, by modify the system and its ruleset you'll be able to add anti-spyware features to their product. Astaro is claiming that they have a product ready to go in which anti-spyware features come integrated into the firewall.

Nah..it's already available for home download. I'll have to get you the link if I can find it...but I'm not finding it right now.
