[QUOTE="cruelsister, post: 714618, member: 7463"] Windows Firewall is oblivious to malicious outbound traffic. Yes, one can spend a lot of time setting up WF rules, but quite a few malware now have scripts embedded in them to allow the connection to Command or just disable WF (and no firewall will prevent hijacking- it will just be aware of and stop the connection from that hijacked process).
