Thanks to hayc59 for this submission in BPN on our forums. On 26th September 2005, Agnitum released Outpost 3.0. This version includes an Anti-Spyware plugin plus an ARP (Ethernet) filtering tab for the Attack Detection plugin.
Following is a list of new features:
- Real-time spyware protection monitors and blocks every attempt by malware to harm your computer.
- Spyware On-Demand Scanner lets you check your system for spyware threats to identify and remove them from your computer.
- ID Block prevents specific personal data leaks from occurring on your computer.
- Attack Detection plug-in now detects and averts particular Ethernet attacks such as IP spoofing, ARP scanning, ARP flood and others, protecting your system from invasions on a local network and more Internet attacks providing even more solid protection against external threats.
- Improved Component Control monitors the more vulnerable locations and files to decrease the number of pop-up prompts that demand your attention.
- The Smart Advisor provides additional information on each Outpost Firewall Pro event and gives recommendations so users are more confident in their decisions.
- New Startup Wizard allows performing quick initial configuration of Outpost Firewall Pro after installation.
- Our feedback service lets you report Outpost Firewall Pro security issues to our support service directly from the program.
