Because antvir9 caused problems on two of my computers, albeit old ones, but otherwise functional with the prior version. The nag popup I do not...
Yup, I hate to see a guy talking with himself, so I am replying to let you know someone is "trying" to follow along :) If this is a...
A few questions on this. (1) Any recommendations on how strong to make it? Can you do 192.105.97.16 for example? What happens to the IP's...
Would this not "mount" the hard drives automatically like windows does? I like that Linux does not do this, so the hard drives are not accessible.
I'ld like to run this scenario by you all. Boot your computer with a Linux LiveCD into Ram only. All hard drives and external media are...
I found this on the Matousec site (my first time there was today actually): From http://www.matousec.com/projects/firewall-challenge/. "This...
Plus..... there are probably a lot more people not behind a NAT router than may be realized by Wilders members. For a person with only one...
That last link worked for me. Currently running the latest beta. I installed right over top of the latest stable release with no problems. Nice...
HI Espresso, that was probably a good thing to try, but it did get taken care of by a helpful PC Tools person. Appreciate the thought though....
Re: PC Tools Firewall I'ld agree on that. the 3rd rule is covering both directions, while the 4th is doing the same for only outbound. You...
Re: PC Tools Firewall Lol. No more popups for sure. Does the computer still work? Just kidding (I hope). The log will be interesting for...
Yup. The packet filtering Advanced Rules look very extensive. You can set incoming and outgoing port ranges, and single matches, both with...
Re: PC Tools Firewall @Aigle, That's really neat how Comodo treats System as an application. Nice. The first rule "Allow IP in/out from IP...
Just a finer level of control. It's something I picked up in researching rules for Kerio. The system apparently should be functioning locally on...
Yes, the PC Tools FW does seem to have excellent application advanced rule making capability. I'm trying it out on an old laptop. Comparing to...
Re: PC Tools Firewall It depends on what Comodo does if you allow and remember it. If it creates a rule specific to the IP address stated,...
Thanks Seer, That nails it as the answer :thumb: So it seems it depends on the firewall whether it will alert you to any external outbound...
Any reason not to use both? They seem to get along ok on my W2k machine. With TF being a behavioral detector and Boclean a blacklist scanner...
Aigles' question is a very good one I think, and I was hoping for an answer as well. Even though the connected IPs are "only" broadcast and...
Fcukdat, Nice to see you using the old Kerio. What would you put in a rule as an application to cover "system" and prevent this from phoning...
This might clinch it. I renamed aklt to mstask. Same result on test1 as before. Mstask.exe should be a trusted exe in TF, but TF detected the...
Pedro, but TF does alert you to keylogging activity for tests 1 and 2. And there is no recourse but to kill and quarantine aklt.exe because the...
Every time it updates. At least on my rig. Might be able to block the executable but I haven't tried it to see if that breaks anything. The...
Henk1956, I tried renaming the aklt executable to winlogon.exe, but received an error message when trying to run it, so this test was not...
What Protection Level you were using in the test? Also, if it was 3, what happens at 4 and/or 5? May be interesting. 1956 was a good year btw ;)
