You need to use the WE mouse(insert + on the numpad) in the three view to get the right announcement of maps. Find out how to close all incoming and outgoing. Then open only for outgoing for programs. Use the help option and searsch for Giode Windows Firewall Advanced. Try to find the basic one. Dont remember where I found it, so you need eventually to search with Google. Now I found it, this is very good http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=239750 Please follow the guide from start to finish. I dont have enough knowledge to support. There is a good Windows Firewall plug in in this thread also. It just works, but have som annoying throuble with the plug in. Not Microsoft, but third party plug in. It was registration problems. The software itself worked fine. You dont need this third party plug in. Windows Firewall Advance works just as a Swiss knife without the plug in. Take care Terje Strømberg -----Opprinnelig melding----- Fra: Terry Chaney [mailto:[email protected]] Sendt: 29. januar 2011 13:34 Til: [email protected] Emne: firewall software I've been using the webroot products for the past several years, but am finding them to be less and less satisfactory as time goes by. In order to keep their software usable it is necessary to remain at an earlier version, and you know the rest of the story. >From recent posts I have some idea of what antivirus programs work well, but I'm wondering about firewall software. I looked through gwmicro and outpost was recommended, but the reference was rather old and software does change. Is anyone working with either the latest version of the outpost firewall or security software successfully? Terry Chaney If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
