Why is it that SP2 Firewall has no Outbound Protections?

It is my opinion that process control does a better job in controlling outbound connections. Until firewalls can pass all leaktests, there are ways of circumventing firewalls outbound protection.

I use process guard, which is lite on resources. It also protects memory and protects against rootkits. If the rouge program cant run (process control), then it cant call out. I think that having really good inbound protection and also having process control is good enough. I have been running a hardware firewall/ AV box with process guard, regdefender and safensecure, without any problems.
