Description:

"The Firewall Pico™ is a portable USB mini-computer that replaces your software Firewall and protects your computer from malicious attacks before they can reach your PC. The Firewall Pico places a physical barrier between PCs and the Internet to ensure that threats never reach users’ computers. Unlike software firewalls, the Firewall Pico is based on a dedicated hardware platform specifically designed to protect PCs from the most devastating menaces including denial of service, buffer overflow and the broadest range of malicious attacks."

    I have tried this device on 3 systems and it failed to stay connected. I ran physically hot to the touch. I ran it directly to a motherboard USB port and to an add-on USB card, it still ran too hot to touch. I upgraded the power supply on one system because it caused the motherboard to lock up. I think the concept is great, but wonder how a laptop battery will cope with the current draw.
