Re: Password vault software

Thanks. I use a Netgear FM114P firewall router so I assume that
a software firewall would be redundant. I'll take a look at it and
see if I can disallow particular programs for Internet access.

So are you saying that you have never heard of personal software
firewalls? If not, time to get one. Get one with outbound control,
like application rules. Then you can decide which applications can
make Internet connections and which cannot.

Comodo's firewall is top-rated amongst the free personal firewalls.
