Version: BlackIce Defender Workstation Update 2.9cap
Pros: It work very well. The firewall has four levels: Trusting (Firewall off), Cautiour (block some), Nervous (block most) and Paranoid (block all unsolicitad inbound trafic). It still has a Application Control. When a application begins install, it alert you. Then, if the applications is legitimate you enable "install mode", else you can terminate or block. After you install some legitimate program, run the "Base Line Applications" to add the new program in the authorizeted list. Your application list is based in files and not in applications names. With it, I can play games on-line tranquil.
Cons: Your Application List in the "Base Line" is based in files. Not in programs. This make difficult the understanding.

Cons: Crashes a lot, allows trojans adwares, spywares, conflicts with other software. DO NOT USE
