Configure firewall ports automatically by application
Authored by: Coumerelli on Mar 13, '06 09:31:32AM

I think it's brilliant! And, hey, if someone has physical access for a long enough time to sniff my password sent in the clear (which is not sent over any network, mind you) then I have bigger problems. And by then I've probably already lost my laptop to theft anyway. This is hardly a security concern to me. And, if I can't trust a person (child of mine or spouse, perhaps?) who DOES have physical access to my computer, then I either lock them out from using programs that can sniff info such as this, or just plain don't give them said laptop to use. Am I right?
