What is unique about
StealthNetWall™ IP filtering Firewall ? |
A.:

The StealthNetWall™ IP
filtering firewall is unique and new in the field
because it is Windows 2000/XP kernel level firewall.
Unlike other firewalls, it is NOT a bulky
memory-consuming product. It is small, light
weight, and most importantly prevents harmful data to
enter your computer at a MUCH LOWER level than other
personal firewalls. |
