The Webroot Firewall is Privacyware Private Firewall 6.0

"WDF 5.5 is indeed based on Privatefirewall 6.0 (which will be released in a couple of weeks). It is not a private label version of DSA, however. WDF 5.5 includes all of the features of PF6 (most of which are also in PF5). All DSA functionality is integrated into Privatefirewall 5/6 and WDF 5.5. The key difference between the Privacyware version and Webroot's is very simple - the behavior-based features (DSA) are disabled by default in WDF 5.5 and enabled by default in PF5/6. Both WDF 5.5 and PF6 are Vista compatible. There are a number of other minor differences between the two applications, bit nothing particularly noteworthy.
