Editor's Review of Jetico Personal Firewall for Windows
The free Jetico Personal Firewall for Windows solves many Internet security problems by blocking dangerous outbound connections. Every time a program tries to make an outbound connection, you get a notification, and you decide whether to allow it or not. Let familiar and safe programs through; don't let dangerous ones make the connection. (If you're not sure what to do, search Google for the file name, and you?ll quickly find out whether it's safe or not.)
If you're sure the program is a safe one, choose "Handle as Application Trusted Zone," when allowing it through so that it can make outbound connections without you having to allow it through ever time. If you instead select "Allow this Activity," you'll be asked every time the program needs to make an outbound connection.
The firewall also includes a traffic monitor, and a log that keeps track of all network events.
