Is there a quick answer to this:

Just installed the above, and getting LowID's on most servers due to the settings. What do I need to change?

Ta.

Well IMO blackICE sucks monkey balls and doesn't stop any attacks that it should do and actually says it does

i could show you a link stating how bad blackICE is for lying to you about attacks but i can't for the love of god find the damn thing atm

there are much better firewalls out there than BlackICE and many are even freeware....i personally use Norton which is harsh on sys resources but is usually pretty darn inpenetrable then use a good AV such as AVG and you are laughing but you REALLY should think about NOT using BlackICE

a few that might be of interest
Symantec_Norton_Personal_Firewall_2003_6.0-9RETAIL.rar

there is 2004 out but i've not upadated yet

Avg.Antivirus.Pro.V7.0.143.ShareReactor.rar

damn good AV software

Cheers BL. I've opened port 4662 on BlackIce and I'm getting Hi ID.

I've used Zonealarm in the past, but found it to be rubbish too.

I'll see how I get on with BlackIce, then maybe try out Norton or summat else.

Cheers.

ouch!... zone alarm that crud used to corrupt my downloads when i used another P2P program and that certainly is a good way to piss you off ....i lost 5 movies to corruption before i realised it was zone alarm messing em up


i'm gonna find that link that is gonna make you halt in your tracks to using BlackICE cuz that surely is a shit firewall

found one link that is definately worth checking out DJ

damn good site for security stuff and some very interesting reading if you have the time

eh,
ive used blackice as well. i keep it running sometimes because i like the interface. i usually set it just to monitor connections with another firewall as the main one and see if there are conflicting info on connections. why? i have too much free time.

zone alarm i used for a year or so, if u can get it configured decent it works fine. for me, at least, it worked fine.

sygate is what i use now, and have been using for some months. its rather easy adding of ip#'s to block is why i like it, the blocklist from peerguardian site just pastes into it.

Just download the latest demo version of Sygate PRo.

Just needs a serial which I'm sure you can get easily.

err, what's a serial?
i have no idea what your talking about, blah blah blah.

isnt sygate free for home use?

You get don't get warnings and shit with a serial number.
/serial is to register it.

Should be in the rar posted above though.
/pm me otherwise.

haha, i knew what a serial was, i thought posting anything about them was against forum rules. i havent ever actually read them, i just thought somewere saying cant post ftp/seriel/pirate links/ip#s .

If that's the issue, this site would be closed.

I'm not going to post anything.
Was just saying that's what you needed.
