-{ Quote: "Outpost Firewall Pro has been always recognized as one of the best personal firewalls in the world. One of the reasons for this is that we continuously work to improve the product’s security in order to provide our customers with the best possible protection.

Whenever a new threat arises, Agnitum engineers add a new security layer to Outpost (without turning the program into ‘bloatware’). We added anti-spyware to Outpost 3.0 to detect and remove spyware, Trojans and keyloggers. And with the latest Outpost 4.0 we introduced new anti-leak functionality to proactively block any malware trying to send out any data from the user’s computer to a third party.

Many of you have asked why we don’t provide anti-virus and anti-spam. Well, now we have an answer, and we think you’ll like it. Within the next two months, we’ll be releasing the all-encompassing Outpost Pro Security Suite, featuring:

* Personal firewall (based on Outpost Firewall Pro);
* Anti-malware (a combination of the new antivirus engine and our existing anti-spyware plug-in);
* Proactive security (based on existing anti-leak capabilities);
* Spam filter (based on Agnitum’s latest offering, Spam Terrier);" }-

"new antivirus engine".... Hmmm, looks like an "in-house" job? Nevertheless, Outpost has always been an exceptional FW. Chubb, thanks for the update.:thumb:

Went smooth, re installed HTTPLog and Traffic plugins.
[Edit] I did have one problem I went to check the log and I got a popup saying the data base was corrupt and asked me if I wanted to replace it.

has anyone tried their anti-spam plug-in?
