[QUOTE="TairikuOkami, post: 715279, member: 61892"] I wrote them about it and they replied, that they do not plan to add it. Pity, it would make a perfect firewall then, unlike the unprotected Windows Firewall. :( That depends, how strict are your rules. Since I do not use HIPS or a similar protection, a malware could hijack any process allowed in the firewall. So I have limited their access as much as possible, like my email client only to my email domain, browser sync to its domain, time sync to NTP, etc. Indeed, that is why disabling scripting is the first line of defense (similar to noscript), also to prevent UAC bypass. I have disabled WSH/WMI, removed powershell. [/QUOTE]
