Black Ice Defender

I had a great experience using this software. It was easy to install and simple to My application began working right away and blocked some attacks from sites which I had believed to be safe. Everyone who uses the Internet should check it out.

This is not being used.

It was a superior product. I believe Network ICE sold it to ISS or was bought outright by ISS, who was later purchased It was then that IBM promptly killed the software, at least through the The technology won't stop being used outright, but they may stop using it in the future. You never know, they may use it under another name in some other product. We might be able to use it by the NSA. The good news is that this program held up the best when compared to other firewalls on a server that was constantly under attack. The website used to access all of my ports, so I was able to lock them down and find out which ones were being attacked. I could also reverse IP trace the origin of the attack. In the intervening years, no firewall has even come close to matching that The world is poorer for the loss of.

As far as firewalls go, BlackIce Defender works fairly well. You will discover, if you ask the company, that the program was not designed for that purpose. A more important aspect of it is that it detects intrusions. There's not much to this application except for the fact that it is fairly simple to install and configure. The lower it goes, the higher it goes- While BlackIce Defender blocks low-level attacks, such as port 80 scans, it does not block more involved probes, such as SubSeven probes. However, it merely lets the probe happen and tells you that it could not locate something that someone had been looking for. If you have a car alarm that says when someone inspects your car but decides it isn't worth stealing (okay, maybe it's not the best analogy), that would be almost as good as an auto theft alarm.
Hope this helps! You can block specific IP addresses or let only certain IP addresses through. However, if you want to stop every SubSeven probe, for instance, you must wait to be probed, after which you must tell BlackIce not to allow that person to get Another flaw is that the interface displays the most recent attacks in an unreliable manner It wasn't unusual for me to reach the bottom of the attacks list, blocking the IP addresses who had probed me, and see the last 20 or 30 IP addresses remaining. In this situation, I would need to return to the attacks page, visit the page a few times, then go to the address page once more.

I've been using BlackIce for about 3 years now, and I'm entirely satisfied with it, except for a few minor concerns that need to be addressed. In the first instance, there is a concern with the default application protection in place. Ideally, this should be turned off at all times, as this program will repeatedly request that you block applications, including the most common ones such as the Explorer. There are two executable files, rundll and exe. You will need to use Windows Media Player and Windows Media DLL. It has never worked, and it doesn't work now either. The memory function, which should help the program learn which programs to block and which to allow, does not work. I think that this feature needs to be turned off, and I dislike the yearly subscription this thing requires in order to work. I am happy to report that it is a straightforward In order to setup Black Ice properly, you'll need to block off ports that are common targets when hackers attack, as well as block addresses as they scan or scan your computer, this does require a bit of setup and I suggest you set up a second firewall while Black Ice is learning. In addition to Black Ice, you can set it to play another musical instrument. A variety of different types of attacks can be detected with it, including Subseven port probes, PC Anywhere port probes, and Taking you through a detailed rundown of each attack, they even leave you with ack shenanigans to worry about. Overall, I strongly recommend this program, but only for users who are focused on protecting their data, not just anyone. You should not attempt this program if you're easily scared.

ini in order for it to start automatically. In terms of program protection, all one needs to do is let Black Ice profile the computer to find out what installed programs are present and that takes care of it. In response to their question about starting up disabled, we received prompt and accurate support. There are some crabby people who will get mad if their bread is buttered the wrong way!.
