GlassWire is the Best Firewall Software for Windows
GlassWire is an absolutely amazing piece of software that we use here at How-To Geek. It’s not just a firewall, although it does that really well — it also does network monitoring and threat monitoring, and it knows when you installed something new that is connecting to the internet. You can monitor the bandwidth of individual applications, and see exactly what they are connecting to. You can block anything you want, and get alerts if necessary. And all that power comes in one of the slickest looking applications we’ve ever used. The free version is great, but the pro version has loads of additional great features that will show you who is on your Wi-Fi network, lock down your computer when you are away, and even detect when something tries to use your webcam or microphone (which could mean somebody is trying to spy on you). And for a limited time, and exclusively for How-To Geek newsletter subscribers, you can get 10% off with the code YNJ-NZ2-F4V at checkout. | |
