The web may be free, but we all know that to safely bank online, buy music, software, or books, or even simply surf the web, there is a price to pay. To combat online threats, firewall, anti-virus and anti-spyware software have become essential investments for any home or business computer. These programs monitor and control system access and scan and remove your system of malicious or spying software.

But the range and sophistication of malicious software and hacking techniques is rapidly expanding and against which traditional software solutions do not provide a proactive defense. Now, Privacyware meets this need with Privatefirewall ― a proactive, multi-layered defense solution for Windows desktops and servers. What's more - Privatefirewall is absolutely FREE of charge.

Privatefirewall features signature-less, behavior-based anti-malware and desktop defense capabilities comprised of several distinct technology layers designed to block or mitigate the damage caused by intrusion, virus and other malware attacks. Beyond unparalleled personal firewall protection, Privatefirewall includes the following layers of proactive, behavior-based defense technology


Privatefirewall Key Features Include:
• Windows 7, Vista, and Server 2008/R2 (32/64 bit). XP and Server 2003 (32 bit).
• Easy-to-use and powerful out-of-box protection.
• Extremely lightweight implementation utilizes minimal system resources.
• Signature-less Anti-Malware and Intrusion Defense – HIPS components learn normal system and application use patterns and detect and block untrusted activity.
• Intelligent Alerts – User-friendly alerts provide detailed information, comprehensive response options and pre-set intelligent “time-out” settings.
• Ultimate Application Control – Highly configurable Application Control Console enables you to specify which and precisely how applications can access the Internet.
• Advanced packet inspection and filtering – Stateful packet inspection technology monitors all inbound and outbound communication between the PC and the Internet.
• Process Detection – Prevents viruses, trojans, worms and other malware by tracking all processes and alerting when potentially malicious processes attempt to run.
• Automatic Detection of Trusted IPs – for Home, Office and Remote locations.
• PC Stealth – makes your PC invisible when online and stealth to potential intruders.
• Port Tracking and Reporting – All ports are monitored to prohibit unauthorized scanning and system intrusion. Detailed reports display scans and other recon attempts.
• Ranks among the best performing desktop defense applications tested against the industry's most rigorous leak, general bypass, spying and termination tests.
