my personal experience is good with
Sygate Personal Firewall Pro.

downloading and uploading always worked with this firewall for me.

I had continual problems with both Sygate and Zone Alarm. Been using Keiro Presonal Firewall for a while now with out difficulty.

check it out a www.kerio.com

at the moment i am using zonealarm 5.1.011.000 because this has popup blocking and sygate has not.

I can post and dowload very well with this version of zonealarm.
Strange thing however: when i shutdown zonealarm, and later want to put zonealarm on, the computer immediately shuts off, and restarts itself.
This has nothing to do with newspro, maybe it is a bug of zonealarm version, or some other settings in my computer.

so maybe you could give this version a try.

I'm also using ZoneAlarm 5.1.011.000 and works fine here too. Don't have that shutdown problem that bassie mentions though. I'm using Win 2000.
