    D'you find that any good? I was curious, but I heard that its crazy aggressive, and blocks a tonne of stuff like HTTP and other usefull ports for no real reason, which sounds..annoying tbh.

    Yeah it's fine - you can choose which blocklists to use and enable/disable them. You can also choose whether it filters HTTP or not. Give it a go, it's much much improved (i.e. rewritten) from it's old incarnation. I did accidentally block all lan access and sit downstairs wondering why remote desktop wasn't working

    Yeah, I heard it blocked LAN stuff too. I'll give it a whirl though, so long as its easily configurable it can't be any worse then bloody norton.

    Oh it's nowhere near as bad as norton



    You choose the lists with that, and then they can be enabled or disabled via a checkbox - dead simple. Just don't include the LAN list and its ok (doh!)
