[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 969649, member: 32260"] I have a friend who uses medical software. Unfortunately, Avast Firewall blocked connections to the server. I tried to whitelist the connections but without success. [B]Anyway, for average home users, Avast with Firewall is good protection[/B] comparable with Defender + Windows Firewall + enabled Defender Network Protection. FirewallHardening can enhance Windows Firewall default protection by adding rules for blocking the outbound connections of LOLBins. Edit. Of course, one should remember that Avast Firewall is not as good as top firewalls when protecting against botnets and financial malware. [/QUOTE]
