Title: Help with Web Shield
Post by: Rakam on February 22, 2005, 03:55:00 PM

How can I use the web shield just for web browsing and continue to be able to allow or not access to the internet for each program?

I am using kerio personal firewall.

If I redirect port 80 (http) every program will be able to access the internet trough web shield.

If I config the browser with a proxy pointing to web shield the other programs also seem to use that same setting and gain access to the internet....

Thanks

Individual apps will be trying to access localhost:12080 instead.
Please see http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=10858.msg92999#msg92999 and also my post at the top of that page.

Thanks
