D0GG Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 I use kaspersky anti-hacker... cuz when i used to use kaspersky antivirus I got anti-hacker as well. Kaspersky anitvirus died and I never got around to using a different firewall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 i use Outpost Firewall Pro. been using it for about and year and half now and i love it. easy to use and configure and it easy to understand, too, which is important to meI really liked Outpost when i tried it, but the one thing that really bothered me was that it would randomly block my games from the internet and i couldnt figure out what was wrong.

LemonHead2089 Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 randomly block your games? you sure you just didnt know which app controlled the game's access to the internet and you ended up accidently blocking it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 I knew, it was probably something like Game.exe and i allowed it, but it just decided it was going to block it. So i ended up using Sygate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LemonHead2089 Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 that's strange. i've only had two or three problems since the first time i used it and they weren't that major. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samurai Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 The advanced rules are working fine for me, did you miss something?-General--Rule Description---[ ]--Action---Allow This Traffic---Block This Traffic--Advanced Settings---Apply Rule To Network InterfaceChoose your card-Hosts--Apply this rule to IP Address-Ports & Protocols--ALLDid you miss any of these?

Snake Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 Nope, went through every advanced rule over and over again to check for errors, everything was fine. I think im going to back to good ol ZoneAlarm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natedogg Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 i have Sygate, but i rarely use it because it slows my computer down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LemonHead2089 Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 why would you rarely use your firewall? its best to have it running up at all times when your connected to the internet. if you think it slows your computer down, maybe you should try and different firewall then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
