Ashampoo Firewall Free

You probably know that you need a firewall program to use the Internet safely. In addition to protecting you against attacks from the Internet, a good firewall will also tell you when programs installed on your computer are trying to phone home and enable you to prevent them from doing it.

This is something that Windows own firewall doesn`t do, and it`s essential for identifying and stopping the activities of many malicious virus and spyware programs. For example, this enables you to prevent your computer from being turned into a zombie controlled by spammers or destructive hackers.

Features:
- Easy Mode / Expert Mode
- Easy: One-click firewall protection for everyone
- Expert: Activate expert functions if you need them
- Configuration Assistant guides you through the setup process
- Amazingly small and compact, uses minimum memory and computer resources
- Learning Mode identifies applications that try to phone home
- Block All panic button to stop all traffic with a single click
- Detailed logging of all connections
- Four additional network security tools included in the tiny package

Ashampoo has years of experience in making programs simple to use. The Ashampoo FireWall FREE user interface explains itself, every step of the way. The information is right there on the screen where you need it, so that most users will never need to consult the help. But detailed help is also there when you need it.

Monitor local connections: Ashampoo FireWall FREE can also monitor the local connections used inside your computer. Useful for identifying suspicious activity. Can be enabled or disabled.

Monitor LAN connections: Monitor all the local LAN traffic into and out of your computer. Can be enabled or disabled.
Connection log: Detailed logging of all internal, LAN and Internet connections with date, time, application, port used and IP address.
