-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Windows firewall is useless.
Someone should write an open source firewall, I found a couple of pieces of open source firewall code but they where really poor (one of them crashed my computer), and I found an open source program PeerBlock to be used to stop anti-copyright company's targeting your file sharing, by blocking there IP address's (in both directions). Its fast, efficient and has hardly any footprint but if it was actually a full firewall it would be awesome, I would rather use a small efficient open source program like this that I know I can count on. Such a piece of software would be a great security enhancement to Tor. Even just a small program to block all outgoing traffic to stop programs from accessing the internet directly (which would also stop virus's and Trojans). When I used it I was amazed to see how many IP address's get accessed without my knowledge, and how many other IPs that tried to access my computer (all strange port numbers probably virus, trojan programs). The NSA must have a hell of a job cos they dont even know if any of these access's where even you or not. Does anyone actually trust any of the commercial firewalls? And why would anyone pay for a large slow, piece of software that probably doesn't do a good job anyway and might have back doors? ~Shadowman ~TheMindwareGroup [email protected] PGP: 0xf4b6586f -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEcBAEBCgAGBQJS3I4zAAoJEKcLVST0tlhvJNcH/02XoEDCGI2psjTZ77QFq+ML 8uLAxfnNoI8e6i3jB7r2Ijyu+ha4nFqzrrTIyv9Gto1GsFLjl6tzMDCKHfC/+omx cATDuQ4gRp21pmgbwqPNxFHdMlqBOPpHXFvlFDKztfAzToL8umWIrg5j/f7uVa1a 25yWxnaJlS7FwqCn+krLk50jBDtNKSmdVzFtskdw0fMrszuPogYLNYYa/9CNPrO8 M+qAa8URA9U46S83XmAlJlWSNPv2pMQGARHfSfNHPb+W5txVHW32h+9KYcY+mIvz n7UUbAT56GCeupl1B88fjJDKUL5VmtjIcPK1omGmCni5tRi1jMMPKUKpchJVj5E= =aNTG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- tor-talk mailing list - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
