[QUOTE="piquiteco, post: 1123700, member: 96829"] Yes, Windows services and TinyWall itself are whitelisted so it will notify you when a new version is released. Other browsers and other programs, you need to give permission manually in the settings in TinyWall by the executable file or by the service, I don't know if you know TinyWall doesn't notify you when it blocks an application from accessing the web. By default, TinyWall blocks literally everything, of course. You decide which application or service you want to give access to the Internet, understand? Unlike WFC, which shows you a notification when an application is going to connect to the web, and you decide whether to allow or block it, TinyWall doesn't warn you - that's what sets it apart. When I used it, I liked that it was what I wanted, but for users with little knowledge, they'll have trouble understanding the logic behind what to allow and what to block.;) [/QUOTE]
