    I recently installed Jetico personal firewall. I'm having to click a lot to allow things each time I use my computer. For my AVST AV, I have to click to allow each time the AV uses a different port. Is this normal? How do I lessen the frequency of this? Should I use a different firewall instead?

    Hello, ninjagaiden

    It would speed things along if you would post your operating system and which version of Jetico Personal Firewall you're using.

    Although I don't use this firewall - I'll ask this general question: Clicking the Configuration tab...
    • Under the Application filter- which of these is ticked?
      • bypass
      • learning mode
      • stop learning

    * A silly question - but have you gotten familiar with the JPF2 User Guide.PDF?

    I have Windows XP SP 3, My JPF version is 2.0.2.8.2327. I think this is the most recent. I just downloaded it a few days ago. My application filter is currently set to learning mode for "direct network services", "indirect network services" and "network communications". How long should I leave it in learning mode?

    The attacker C:\Program Files\Common Files\Real\Update_OB\realsched.exe is RealNetworks Scheduler. Should I allow this process?

    The link provided for JPF2 guide didn't work, but I just finished reading a lot of the JPF help guide. Thanks for the advice.

    Hello,

    I would personally uninstall the jetico firewall and download and install zonealarm firewall it's a better program and you dont have to keep clicking on remembering all the time.
