...not sure what ti think about that, here is (see screen shots) what happens when this firewall is on auto-decide mode >>>
all connections allowed, meaning inbound as well. I can get it for Skype, but for the others...adding that it's not the case right now, but I'm seen the same happen with Firefox and Thunderbird.
Will delete most rules now and switch back to ask mode
edit: no screen shot but same for Secunia, Miranda, Windows Desktop Gadgets, Opera.
