Little snitch is one of the very few third party security apps that everyone should use. If nothing else, it gives you the ease of mind knowing that no app can contact anything outside with your permission. In today's world of Strange Re-Directions, this can be *very* good indeed.
Plus, it is very unobtrusive, and simple to use. What more do you want?
I like this product very much, and of course recommend it to everyone. Oh, and I think the price is right. I value my peace of mind. Highly.
One note: Because of it's unobtrusiveness, I tend to forget it's there. This caused some consternation on my part because my RSS newsfeed screensaver didn't update the headlines for almost a month. After some time I found out that, of course, it was Little Snitch that dutifully disallowed net access to the (new) screensaver. I never noticed, because I wasn't looking at the screen when the saver kicked in.
