Blocking a software from getting un-registered is one of the reason most of us use firewalls. ;) Any firewall can be used to block softwares from connecting to the internet. I'll recommend Comodo. ;)

Yep, I second COMODO - additionally, the HIPS module is more than a match for any exe file. ;)

Online Armour is a breeze to add programs to your list. Free or Premium are both excellent.

I assume that you're on Windows 7, the following 3 work with & extend Windows own built-in firewall, and the last one is standalone:

Windows Firewall Control 3.7.3.0 (http://www.binisoft.org/wfc.php):

Windows Firewall Control is a nifty little application which extends the functionality of the Windows Firewall and provides quick access to the most frequent options of Windows Firewall. It runs in the system tray and allows user to control the native firewall easily without having to waste time by navigating to the specific part of the firewall. This is the best tool to manage the native firewall from Windows 8, Windows 7 and Windows Vista. Windows Firewall Control offers four filtering modes which can be switched with just a mouse click:

High Filtering - All outgoing connections are blocked. This setting blocks all attempts to connect to and from your computer.
Medium Filtering - Outgoing connections that do not match a rule are blocked. Only programs you allow can initiate outgoing connections.
Low Filtering - Outgoing connections that do not match a rule are allowed. The user can block the programs he don't want to initiate outgoing connections.
No Filtering - Windows Firewall is turned off. Avoid using this setting unless you have another firewall running on your computer.

TinyWall 2.0.1 (http://tinywall.pados.hu/):

TinyWall is a free software to harden and control the advanced firewall built into Windows.


TinyWall includes a combination of features that sets it apart from both commercial and freeware firewalls.

• TinyWall does not annoy you with popups at all, yet it is still extremely easy to add exceptions to your firewall rules.
• TinyWall actively blocks hundreds of trojans, viruses and worms.
• TinyWall does not require you to know about ports, protocols and application details.
• TinyWall makes use of network zones, allowing you to specify different behaviour when you're at home, at work or in the public.
• TinyWall prevents malicious programs from modifying the settings of Windows Firewall.
• TinyWall uses Windows' own firewall for filtering and does not install drivers or other kernel components.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Windows Firewall Notifier 1.7.0 (http://wokhan.online...ogs.php?sec=WFN):

Windows Firewall Notifier extends the default Windows embedded firewall behavior, allowing to handle outgoing connections, and displaying (almost) real-time information about the current connections.

This application only uses existing Windows features, enabling some of them when first launched:

• Enables the Windows embedded firewall
• Sets the firewall to block both inbound and outbound connections for which no rule exists
• Enables the default Windows firewall inbound connection notification
• Enables the Windows firewall outbound connections logging (disabled by default)
• Creates a scheduled task linked to the Windows firewall event log entries, allowing Windows Firewall Notifier to be launched when needed only

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Privatefirewall 7.0.28.1 (http://www.privacywa...l_firewall.html):

Privatefirewall multi-layered endpoint security software protects 32 and 64 bit Windows desktops and servers from malware and unauthorized use.
