    Hey,
    I'm testing ESS beta 1a and I am very happy so far.

    What I noticed, the firewall when in automatic filtering mode does not notify / ask about programs that want to listen to incoming connections like for example Windows Firewall does. I don't know whether this is done on purpose because this way it's easier for users, but wouldn't it increase security? Thanks for your thoughts.
