While totally I agree with you, we should not forget that what the OP
asks for is standard feature on several host-based firewall products
(popular in the Windows world). HTTP as spoken by Firefox and Opera is
the same dialect, but a host-based firewall should be able to
distinguish between Firefox and an attacker exploiting php's fopen()
(to take an example).
Exactly Binand, that is what I am looking for, I understand there isn't
any st. forward way to do it. Have you used proggies like firestarter
(?) i think they manage something like this, I wonder how?
Coming back to my previous Q, is there a way to always run a process
(firefox) with aparticular process id and then filter based on that id?
