Configuring Avast Firewall
« on: June 23, 2018, 02:39:13 AM »
I'm using Avast Internet Security with Windows 10, version 1803 and I'd like to configure my firewall to block "ping" requests. Is there a way to do this with the Avast Firewall?

TIA

Are you behind a router with firewall?    That is your first line of defence

I reconfigured my router to block ping requests.

Thanks
