I use BlackICE Defender which is excellent although Zonealarm is a good alternative

BlackIce is great if you know what you're doing and what you want, ZoneAlarm is better for the "average" user who may not understand all the relevant concepts.

Does the latest Blackice offer app level blocking?

Sygate Personal Firewall is great. Hate Zone Alarm.

Sygates pretty good, however check out http://www.kerio.com for the Beta4 of their v3 personal firewall.

i really rate that at the moment. - and its not a dodgy beta
