McAfee

Personal Firewall Plus 5 & 6, Internet Security 6, 7 & 8

 

To change a permission level:

Right-click the McAfee icon, point to Personal Firewall, then click Internet Applications.

In the Permissions list, right-click the permission level for an application, and choose a different level:

 

Click Allow Full Access to allow the application to both send and receive data.

Click Outbound Access Only to prevent the application from receiving data.

Note: Once the computer is rebooted, the permission level will revert back to Allow Full Access. If you want the application access level to be outbound traffic only, it is recommended that you change the security level to Tight Security.  

 

Click Block This Application to prevent the application from sending or receiving data.

Note: Previously blocked applications continue to be blocked when the firewall is set to the Open security setting or Disabled. To prevent this from occurring, you can either change the application's permissions to Full Access or simply delete the blocked permission rule in the Permissions list.

 

To delete a permission level:

Right-click the McAfee icon, point to Personal Firewall, then click Internet Applications.

In the Permissions list, right-click the permission level for an application, and click Delete Application Rule.

The next time the application requests Internet access, you can set its permission level to re-add it to the list.
