[QUOTE="SeriousHoax, post: 849115, member: 78686"] I think for an advanced firewall there are better options than GlassWire and it also consumes more than acceptable CPU. If you do torrenting then GlassWire is a big no as it consumes massive CPU and it's a known issue which they officially acknowledged. [URL='https://www.binisoft.org/wfc']WFC[/URL] is a great option to manage Windows Firewall. You can set it up to ask for your permission before a program tries to connect to internet, make permanent allow/block rules. [URL='https://github.com/henrypp/simplewall/releases']SimpleWall[/URL] is another great option but it's not an UI for Windows Firewall lilke WFC, it's based on Windows Filtering Platform. It blocks all inbound connections by default and would ask for your permission when a program tries to create an outbound connection. [/QUOTE]
