Hello.
What do you guys use if you use one? I heard good thing about Little
Snitch. Are there any more like it, but freeware and simple/light to
customize (e.g., Kerio Personal Firewall, Outpost Firewall 2009, etc. in
Windows)?
Thank you in advance. :)

Re: Mac's firewall software to block outbounds...

Wow, old products and article from 6/18/2008.
http://www.hanynet.com/noobproof/ shows 2.5 stars out of 5.
https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/26502/noobproof says up to 10.7.
What about the newer versions? :(
At least http://www.hanynet.com/waterroof/ is updated (no Mac OS X 10.9
though) and has almost five stars.

human beings is a far more useful thing than a community of ants, and
that if the human being is condemned and restricted to perform the same
functions over and over again, he will not even be a good ant, not to
mention a good human being." --Norbert Wiener

Re: Mac's firewall software to block outbounds...

Up to date info here:
http://www.hanynet.com/icefloor/index.html
Working up to Yosemite ... I think you should look at the original
webpage where they offer it, the first web was only so you could begin
searching.
I am using LittleSnitch and I am very glad with it .. but used before
(Leopard, Lion and Mountain Lion times) theese firewalls front-end.
Cheers.

Re: Mac's firewall software to block outbounds...

So far, Little Snitch is my favorite. Others are complex to use. :/

Quote of the Week: "Is it for pleasure you were made? Not for doing, and
for action? Look at the plants, the sparrows, the ants, spiders, bees,
all doing their business, helping to weld the order of the world. And
will you refuse man's part? And not run the way of nature's ordering?"
