Finally decided to give Protowall a try. It works pretty good, just around 1~2% cpu utilization and <15mb memory usage. That's with around 2+billion ips being blocked (around 60% of the world's IP). hehehe.
I did try out the bandwidth test and it didn't affect my transfer speed - so i guess the rumors i've been reading were false.
Altho nero is great, I MUCH prefer cd-clone to nero for copying cd than using nero. cd-clone never have any buffer errors for me to waste a disc. now if cd-clone can only handle bin/cue files instead of just ccd files...
