[QUOTE="bellgamin, post: 1016813, member: 56053"] AFAIK, TW doesn't enable user to manage ports or to develop detailed rules. Thus, TW lacks a tool that is available in other stand-alone FWs such as Evorim, FortKnox, & Simplewall, as well as being available in several AVs such as K7, ESET, Kaspersky, & Panda. None of those FWs require or encourage user to set rules. These FWs work as well as TW even if user sets no rules other than "allow or block." So why not use a further-developed FW that offers user the OPTION to tweak & tighten? Just asking........ [/QUOTE]
