PC Tools Firewall Plus is a security program for Windows that provides firewall projection. Users can monitor network connection and block unauthorized access from suspicious websites and applications.
Firewall
Similar to SimpleWall, there is an option to activate both inbound and outbound firewalls in order to secure the network. Users can make connections and avoid entering suspicious websites or allowing untrusted applications to interact with the internet. This helps to protect computers from various online threats.
It is possible to check the safety of ports before connecting to them. You can create a blacklist and whitelist to manage your utilities and keep suspicious ones apart from internet usage. PC Tools Firewall Plus also allows you to turn on a stealth mode that hides your presence on the network.
Corruption
Ironically, this security program itself contains malicious files that may damage the operating system and its components. After uploading an installation file on VirusTotal, it became clear that running PC Tools Firewall Plus on an unprotected computer is too dangerous.
