[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 875520, member: 32260"] That can depend on the chosen profile. The Recommended Settings do not block Sponsors (LOLBIns). The enhanced profile will automatically block several popular Sponsors. The user can block all Sponsors (over 170) by one mouse-click (if needed). Some LOLBins use outbound connections, so they can be blocked by the FirewallHardening in H_C. Anyway, blocking the Sponsors on the well updated system with well updated software is not necessary when using H_C with Recommended Settings. The Sponsors (LOLBins) require an exploit or command-line access - both can be hardly obtained on such a protected system. See for example: [URL unfurl="true"]https://malwaretips.com/threads/hard_configurator-windows-hardening-configurator.66416/post-874909[/URL] [/QUOTE]
