sirri Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 So far, I could not find in Setting/option to block this kind of file. All return to block only .EXE ( inbound/outbond).Does anyone know how ?with 3rd party Firewall such PrivateFirewall, it can easily be done.

0veR Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 DLL is just application extension. You must block app that use that DLL file not DLL file ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcs18 Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 That might be possible by enhancing Windows Firewall with Windows Firewall Control - not sure, though (have not tested it personally.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demoneye Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 i use w7 firewall control ( http://www.sphinx-soft.com/Vista/order.html) and what ever try to make new outbond connection bring up a popup to allow/disallow.anyway , a dll cant run itself , there is something which run it...

Bu7ch Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 0veR is right, dll can't be executed without application (.exe)Check your registry, your dll file maybe registered and executed by Windows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
