What's new in McAfee Personal Firewall?

McAfee - Personal Firewall
this is also a freebie from AOL ,

to get it you just register via AOL keyword firewall to get an email allowing you to download it.


McAfee has added several key functional enhancements to its firewall technology. To strengthen the security and control that you have over how your computer accesses the Internet, Personal Firewall now features application fingerprinting and outbound filtering. These features help you control programmatic access to the Internet by allowing you to securely fingerprint trusted applications. Together, application fingerprinting and outbound filtering help to prevent malicious spyware and Trojans from sending data out of your computer to a hacker. To support these new features, McAfee has also updated its user interface and alert mechanism.

When the McAfee icon disappears from the system tray I re-register and download the latest version.

took a siesta from 200 to 400pm then I had to go to our new medical centre to get a repeat prescription for the meds. lost in my baggage at BHX
Birmingham airport.

Ftare an hour and a half I got hold of this old COMPAQ MV720 monitor

I have just relocated back to England
then lost my luggage at Birmingham airport - swopped cases with someone

of course my valuable stuff came as hand baggage

then I had lost the software for the AOL dsl and had to have a chat with a girl in New Delhi
who arranged a dial up
so I could download new drivers
the one for the BT VOyager 105 modem was corrupt
but lucklily I had the older BTVOyager 100 here
