SoftPerfect Personal Firewall Description
SoftPerfect Personal Firewall is a lightweight firewall application built specifically for protecting your computer from online attacks. Even if you are using a good antivirus application, you computer’s security may still be at risk while surfing on the Internet or sharing files. The application gives users the possibility to select the programs or protocols to be blocked from a preset list, namely ARP, DHC & BOOTP, DNS, NetBios, FTP, ICMP, ICQ, Telnet & SSH, IRC, MSN, VPN, and others. The preset options come in handy for less experienced users, as they can be activated with just a few clicks, but the ace up its sleeve is the rule setup feature. Speaking of custom rules, SoftPerfect Personal Firewall gives users the possibility to specify the rule name, action (pass or reject packet), direction (incoming, outgoing, or both of them), and protocol, select the source and destination IP address (my computer, host name, single IP address), as well as enable the advanced ICMP option. The program provides a learning mode for rookies and gives details on how to deal with firewall alerts. For example, if an incoming UDP packet was intercepted on your local area connection, the program allows users to block or pass the connection, or set up a rule. Other important features worth mentioning enable users to encrypt information by setting up passwords, log the firewall evens to a file and limit the file size to a specified size, as well as enable pop-up window notifications. Last but not least, the tool bundles three different security modes (allow, filter, or block all communications), and lets you upload the rules from XML file format. All in all, SoftPerfect Personal Firewall offers customizable options and an intuitive interface for helping you protect the PC against online attacks.
