So, when I looked at your instruction, I found that I didn't even know how to get to the advanced firewall settings anymore. Well, of course, you got me there.
It now seems much simpler than before. I am trying to prevent "Leaktest" from connecting to its home base through the firewall. I have not been successful yet, but I am working on it. Sunday, January 28, AM. Wednesday, January 24, PM. Thanks Jay: I have read what's on the link before, but I didn't get very far with it. I ended up with too many questions to start fooling with things I didn't understand well.
I am yet to hear of a single home user using the firewall to deal with outgoing. In this regard, there has been absolutely no discussion of the how to's issue on the three boards that I frequent. So, I guess I am looking for someone who has actually used the firewall in this way to provide a brief primer--something to get us home users going. Znod My answer to you is 1. The default modes built-in to Vista work very well 2. The most basic end users have no issues with the stand settings in Vista firewall 3.
You can use parental controls also 4. My issue see post 1 is using the firewall to deal with outgoing. Thanks again. WHAT program Jay. Thursday, January 25, AM. I would like for the Windows Vista Firewall WVF to alert me when any program tries to call home unless the program is a known program that has been designated as not being problematic.
More specifically, for an unfamiliar, and, thus, possibly problematic program, I would want an alert from WVF. Under such a condition, I would like for WVF to allow me opt to allow the program to call home a never, b this time only, or c always.
A program that I have opted to allow to call home always is one way a program could be "designated as not being problematic. Ok let see if I understand You would like 1. Saturday, January 27, AM. Thanks much Jay. What you said definitely gives me a starting point. I'll eventually post back to let you know how it goes and probably to move to the next level if I still don't get well enough. I am reading, but most of what I read is well beyond what I want to do and tends to be very much oriented towards businesses.
Saturday, January 27, PM. Hi Jay: It all looks easy, and I have experimented quite a bit. However, I have not accomplished what I want. Here is what I can do why it falls short of what I want to do. I can choose to block all outbound. If I make this choice, then I can block Leaktest from getting to the web. However, if I then write rules that will allow the programs I want to access the web to do so, I am only partially successful.
For example, using either Firefox or IE, I can create a rule that allows me to access any well encrypted site, but no others. I have yet to find a way to get around the encryption issue despite having tried all sorts of things. The issue is that if I try to view a page that does not support encryption, then I am blocked. I can take the opposite approach and choose to allow all outbound--which is the default setting.
