Norton Personal Firewall
-
Version
2004
Symantec’s Norton Personal Firewall 2004 keeps hackers
out and personal data in. Malicious Internet users are
constantly looking for new ways to take control of
your PC or steal your private information. Norton
Personal Firewall works on multiple levels to defend
against those threats. Right out of the box, this
award-winning software hides your PC on the Internet
so hackers can’t see it. If an attack is launched,
Norton Intrusion Detection automatically blocks it.
New Web controls provide fast access to ad blocking
and other program options from Microsoft Internet
Explorer. Another new feature, Network Detector,
allows you to set up different firewall rules for
different wired and wireless networks, then
automatically switches to the appropriate settings
when you move your laptop from network to network.
Norton Personal Firewall also controls what goes out
of your computer. Norton™ Privacy Control prevents
confidential information from being sent out in email,
instant messages, or Microsoft® Office attachments
without your knowledge. And Program Control lets you
decide which applications can connect to the Internet,
preventing spyware programs and Trojan horses from
secretly transmitting data. To guard against emerging
threats, Symantec’s exclusive LiveUpdate technology
automatically downloads new protection updates via the
Internet. Small Office Packs for 5 or 10 users are
also available.
