Looking for firewall that performs like Netlimiter

[QUOTE="Tutman, post: 880149, member: 87079"] No I am talking about playing nicely with all applications like Netlimiter does. IE: When a program wants to dial out for example to do an update and the firewall stops it and gives you the prompt "You want to allow this program to dial out to the internet"? And you hit yes but with most firewall programs the connection is now broken. The application gives you an error and/or you have to re-run it or hit try again to check for updates... Netlimiter to me seems unique in that it tells the application "One sec. please" and when you hit allow then it lets the program resume with no breakage or interference. Someone said Comodo firewall also will do this too but I have not tested it yet. IMHO this should not be a special feature but a default all firewalls should do! [/QUOTE]
