[QUOTE="FoxtrotCZ, post: 1037690, member: 73048"] I looked at Sphinx Firewall, it can selectively block apps but cannot make groups, similar to NetLimiter. Well, it just looks like no other software can do all the things Kaspersky firewall can which is shame. There are basically these groups of software: 1) Windows firewall, ESET - You need to find each individual exe and make rules for it. 2) Glasswire - Lists all connecting apps, so you dont have to search for exes. But you have to block per app and cannot selectively block. 3) Avast, Norton - Also lists apps and can make more complex selective blocking rules per app. 4) Comodo - Only other that can make groups and apply rules to groups but have to find exes. But only Kaspersky combines all the features into one good working package. It lists all apps connecting to the internet, no need for searching exes. It even automatically groups them per vendor or you can make your own groups. And you can apply complex rules to whole groups. For example allow all apps in group only LAN access. It's unfortunate that no other competitor can provide firewall this capable. [/QUOTE]
