Agnitum Outpost Firewall
-
Version
1.0.1511
Agnitum has released Outpost Firewall, a FREE,
powerful personal firewall for Windows. Outpost
Firewall gives peace of mind from any threats by
cookies, banner ads, e-mail viruses, backdoors,
spyware, crackers, adware, and virtually every other
Internet danger. Unlike other personal firewalls,
Outpost starts protecting against all kinds of
internal and external attacks as soon as it's
installed. This is the first firewall with an open
architecture and support for plug-ins, so its
capabilities can easily be extended by thousands of
developers worldwide. Outpost protects your system
from worm and virus attacks that arrive by e-mail. You
can filter e-mails based upon their content, and
Outpost will prevent dangerous attachments from
executing. Outpost performs web filtering, allowing
parents, educators, and businesses to exercise control
over the content that is allowed to reach your
computer. There is a privacy guard feature, as well as
a plug-in that will block banner advertisements from
your web pages. Users can get free updates to Outpost
automatically, using the program's built-in update
utility. With its open architecture and support for
third-party plug-ins, Outpost's functionality can be
expanded to detect and protect computers from new
threats that may develop. Current plug-ins include
modules that provide full privacy protection against
all kinds of active elements in e-mail and on the web,
blocking of banner advertisements and pop-up windows,
protection of e-mail from dangerous attachments and
worms, content filtering for parental control, and
detection and protection from port scanning and
intrusion. Inexperienced users will appreciate the
ease of installation and ability to simply set
Outpost's protection features.
