Your comment “Another dev sells out to Malwarebytes.” is crass.Īlexandru has finally decided that, instead of relying on donations, he would like to be paid properly for his efforts and joined Malwarebytes.

It would seem that many users believe that all software should be free, forgetting that the developers need cash to live. Putting the $10 donation into context, this would buy a couple of Starbucks or Costa “coffees”. I was happy to donate $10 for a Lifetime licence because it is one of the best Windows firewall configuration programs.

When Martin reviewed WFC 5.3.1, there were quite a few comments made about having to (oh horror) PAY for the full version. Until version 5.3.1, he requested a $10 donation to access all the features, including real time monitoring. Now You: What is your take on the new DAWDADĪlexandru Dicu, the developer of WFC, released the first version, WFC 1.6, in June 2010. Memory usage increased a bit in the new version but not nearly as much as it did when Malwarebytes released version 3.0 of the company's main security program. It will certainly leave some users behind those who don't or can't go through the process, and those who prefer to stick with the old version to avoid the new version. The requirement to remove the old installation before installing the new version is problematic.

Inbound connections are blocked automatically if the user switches profiles if they are allowed by default. Malwarebytes made a change to profile switching next to that which improves the handling of inbound connections. You can load it with a tap on the F1 key or the selection of the question mark icon.

The user manual was converted to PDF from CHM.

Users may change the language of the interface under Options now directly.

The changelog on the official Binisoft website highlights two additional changes. You will notice that the configuration options look identical to those of previous versions.Â The shell, the menu on the left side, changed in the new version but the actual options appear to be the same. You may want to change those to 'display notifications' instead or 'learning mode'. It would be nice if you could click on a status to change it.Ī click on profiles shows that filtering is set to low by default and not medium Notifications are set to disabled for outbound connections. You cannot interact with these there, however. The new dashboard highlights the state of the firewall, inbound and outbound connections, and the location. Tip: Select Rules > Import Windows Firewall rules from a file and Options > Import user settings from a file to import settings and rules from the previous version. It looks similar to the interface of other Malwarebytes products and carries the Malwarebytes branding.

The first thing that existing users will notice after the upgrade is that the interface changed significantly. Thank You! It's nice having someone offer a civil and helpful response rather than being blown off.Note: if the download link is not working, try this one: Malwarebytes Windows Firewall Control I also recommend it to anyone that has installed a different firewall and are scratching their heads trying to figure out why is this so complex. It's good and I recommend to anyone just running windows firewall. Fourthly, allows you to set profiles on the fly with a click in the system tray and finally allows you to review all connection attempts, inbound and outbound.

Thirdly, it adds little things like context menu items where you can just click on a file and allow or block as opposed to having to open up windows firewall and adding manual entries. Secondly that it will not allow a connection to home base to try and download additional components or send your information to God knows who. Secondly, if you have inadvertently installed a piece of malware on your computer, it may do damage locally, but firstly you'll be aware of it maybe a bit sooner because you'll get notifications that something is trying to connect outbound and it will be blocked. Biggest need number one is to control the biggest piece of spyware on your computer. I use it constantly so there is definitely 'a need'. Windows firewall is very good as far as protection, just lacks certain basics.

This software just adds that extra control over the existing windows firewall instead of having to install an entirely new firewall software. as far as 'the need' it's to allow you to control outbound connections in the firewall and be notified, which normal windows firewall lacks badly. Nicely designed, non-invasive and the developer is very responsive to questions. Couldn't ask for a better piece of software. I've been using since before it became part of Malwarebytes and it's awesome.
