Another firewall comparison has been done by ZD at the ZD Internet Megasite.

    In executing this evaluation of currently shipping firewall products,
    our goal was not only to identify a clear leader (or leaders, as the
    case might be) in overall quality and capability, but to also provide
    the reader with a general understanding of the range of products
    available and some important issues involved in selecting a firewall.
    To this end, we attempted to gather as many of the current leading
    products as possible. 

    The products chosen for our evaluation were: Borderware from
    Secure Computing, CyberGuard from Harris, Eagle from Raptor,
    Firewall-1 from Checkpoint (also available from Sun Microsystems
    as Solstice), Gauntlet from Trusted Information Systems, Labyrinth
    from Cyprus Consulting, and Secure Network Gateway (SNG)
    from IBM.

So AltaVista Firewall for <insert OS here> doesn't count as a current leading 
product?
