Portmaster looks very user friendly. Domain names filtering per app and SPN features are cool.
But I need the following features in Fort Firewall:
- app groups to easily enable/disable group of programs
- wildcards in program path names
- IP addresses blocking, as in PeerBlock
- speed limiting
- auto-apply program's rules to its child processes
Also I'm concerned about CPU usage when torrenting.

This firewall is weird...
Let me explain...
I just tested it quickly with a RAT that I built with a fake Wisevector signature (but I went as far as modifying a few parts to make it look like Microsoft) .
The RAT used is Venom5, a fork of AsyncRAT.
I left the firewall by default, and launched the Trojan in administrator mode.
I noticed that Fort Firewall create a rule automatically and allow the connection without warning me....
Why doesn't it ask if it doesn't know?

Thanks for checking it out.
Fort Firewall (FFw) is in a "learning" mode after installation.
It indicates about alerts in the tray system icon.
So you have to turn off the "Auto-Allow New Programs" flag.
And review the auto-allowed apps in the Programs window.
(This initial behavior is for case, when you install it on remote computer. So the connection will not be auto-blocked.)
And please test the latest version: v3.7.9 for now.
