Like I told you before, there is another packet filtering element on the
XP O/S that can be used to stop outbound packets from leaving the
machine by port, protocol, or IP to supplement the XP FW or machine
level packet filter.



However, there is no GUI providing that functionality for IPFilter.
Or did you refer to IPSec, which most notably is not a serious alternative?


And I am going to address this too. I have explained to you that IPsec running on the Windows platform is a supplemental packet filtering solution if you understand the word *supplement* -- maybe it's beyond you -- and is not a front line solution. IPsec on the Windows platform does have a GUI that can be used and is a viable supplemental solution.

And point blank, I don't give a rat's *** about IPFilter. I know all about IPFilter. I don't need you bringing it up to me.
