A personal firewall program for unexperienced Internet users who want to know they are safe. Should protect Dial-up, Cable, DSL, Sat, and LAN while online.
Should be easily configurable to novice users.
With programs accessing the internet the user should be informed (popup message), and they should be able to specify if they want it to give the program access (and if they want the firewall to remember there preference.)
Incoming data/attacks should also show a popup message, with block/allow options.
The more features the better and the more we will pay. With a easy to use interface and perhaps a initial setup wizard.
I don't think this can be done in visual basic (due to needing the [login to view URL] driver - but if you can make it work, go for it.)
## Deliverables
Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. Complete copyrights to all work purchased. *- Basic technical description of how the firewall works would be nice. (Just roughly)
## Platform
Windows 95 and up
## Deadline information
Coder must also include a shareware or demo version of the software - with either limited functionality or a secure 30 day usage limit.
