Description of Webroot Desktop Firewall 5.8

Two-way firewall protection

A computer without a firewall is easy prey for hackers, worms, remote access Trojans and other online threats. Anti-spyware and virus protection are only a part of any security solution. A firewall is a critical component, and Webroot Desktop Firewall secures your computer from Internet threats and reduces the risks of being a victim of online crimes. Unlike the Windows XP and Vista Firewall, Webroot Desktop Firewall combines intelligent firewall technology with intrusion prevention for inbound and outbound protection that is both powerful and easy to use.

Designed for novices and experts alike, Webroot Desktop Firewall is the gatekeeper to your PC.

Key features

Monitors and protects all Internet traffic to and from your computer
Monitor all Internet traffic to and from your PC and blocks harmful or suspicious activity. It even prevents trusted applications from being "hijacked" to steal personal files.

You can define additional rules for specific applications or connection types if you choose.

Automatic Network Detection
Whether you are using your laptop at home, at the office, or on the go, Webroot Desktop Firewall automatically recognizes your Internet connection and sets the appropriate security settings
