There's no debating the importance of using security measures to protect your data and computer. GlassWire's excellent firewall is one such tool for protecting your digital self. Rated 4.5 out of 5 by PCWorld, GlassWire is an all-encompassing safety solution that allows you to monitor, track, and reinforce your computer with unrivaled control.

With GlassWire, you can keep tabs on current and past network activity, sorting by traffic type, apps, and geographic location. GlassWire also includes a robust firewall that updates you on your computer's background activity and notifies you when a new app or service accesses the web for the first time.

There is a basic version of GlassWire which you download for free. You can also upgrade GlassWire for extra protection with two levels of service. GlassWire Pro lets you monitor, track, and protect up to three computers, while GlassWire Elite ups the count to ten. There's a deal on GlassWire Pro for $29 or Elite for $49, saving 70 percent off their usual retail prices.

This firewall is built into the free antivirus 360 Total Security. Seems good but I've only used it a limited number of times.
 
Yeah but it shouldn't have been emailed to me on the newsletter as an article/story.

They made it into an article.... you can turn off your email notifications.
I was being somewhat sarcastic. Although it is essentially advertising this software, it fits within their means to make it into an article.
 
Because I like the software, to make this less of an ad, AMA! =)
I have used this on servers to monitor traffic(along with other tools) I find the stats it collects interesting.
 
Hmm; monitoring statics is not the major function of a firewall :grin:
 
I've always like the concept of firewall, but so many firewall I tried in the past were such a pain in the bntt, rom an interface point of view, that I quit them for good, I may try this one, though.
 
I would never run a system connected to the Internet without a firewall - - there's just too much that can go wrong.
Starting with Win/7, the default firewall is good enough and doesn't require user manipulation under most conditions.
