A (free) alternative to this would be Kerio Personal Firewall
(http://www.kerio.com) that uses MD5 hashes on all installed programs, and
warns you the minute they change. This also includes important system files
too.

Sorry, I have a policy of never using any product that uses spam methods
for marketing regardless of how good or useful it may be (or any product
from companies that have used spam advertising).
