Free Firewall (net access utility)

#1 Post by Midas »

I recently became aware of Evorim's Free Firewall (http://www.evorim.com/en/free-firewall) offer and although I haven't tested it, I found it worthy of mention at TPFC.

I'm assuming Free Firewall isn't readily portable because of its nature and because there is zero info about that issue.

I tested Free firewall about a week ago. It looks decent and it is a program to watch but I can't say how effective it is- I didn't try any leak tests..

It seems that a portable version is coming:
Future development What we are currently working on
- Integration in the Windows Action Center
- Portable Version
- Protection against fraudulent websites
- And many, many more ...

So glad to see a very tiny firewall. In fact is the only firewall I have liked ever since the days of Sygate Firewall!! Well I'm still missing a firewall to my XP machine, but I understand the reasons to only support vista/7 and up versions of windows, like reliance in the newer built-in firewall. Looking forward as well for the portable version, keep the good work.
