Chris Posted February 1, 2004 Report Share Posted February 1, 2004 The added protection provided by outbound filtering is entirely illusory. It's dated November 2001 :unsure: But! I do not use a fireall so cannot test it, someone who is running a firewall is it true. It can bypass outbound Protection? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
expertec Posted February 2, 2004 Report Share Posted February 2, 2004 :unsure:I'm using Sygate Personal Firewall, BTW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Radfordin Posted February 2, 2004 Report Share Posted February 2, 2004 Got the same as expertec (using ZA Pro via a router) but it means very little to the 'man in the street' does it?!Unless someone can look at the code and see what it is actually doing there is no way of proving this isn't just a fancy hoax.

Guest Lived Backwards Posted February 2, 2004 Report Share Posted February 2, 2004 surely this is a little post designed to panic people. Yes, as shown firewalls are vulnerable to being leaky to outgoing traffic, but it should be pointed out that firewalls are there to stop inbound traffic as well and it is a job that they are good at.....
