What SOFTWARE based firewall can block ports?
 

What software based firewall can block port ranges?

ZA can't can it?(at least not the free version)

I know hardware firewall is better etc, but it's not for me:-)

Thanks

Andre

I use Norton and it can.

Can't zone alarm do that? its free too.

The bulit in WIN XP firewall blocks ports.
Zone Alarm (ZA) does not.


Get WIN XP SP2.

I must be missing something... What does a firewall do if it doesn't block ports?

Thats pretty much the whole point :)

"Outpost"

Well ZA does block ports, but not for outgoing. It only blocks whole programs etc.

Thnx, will look at that one, doubt if they allow me to block msn ports:)

edit: I might be stupid, but I see only how can I ALLOW some ports, not how to block some...

Andre

It does more than block ports.

Here's a link that describes a firewall
