DoorStop Firewall PE v1.1
Open Door Networks Inc. announced at Macworld Expo that it was shipping version 1.1 of its DoorStop Firewall, Personal Edition. DoorStop Personal is an easy to use, end-user version of Open Door's powerful server firewall
software, specifically focused on protecting Mac OS 9's new Internet
services. Version 1.1 adds a much-requested notification feature along with
other improvements. DoorStop Personal Edition, which runs on Macs back to Mac OS 8.1, is an
important security enhancement for any Mac that is connected to the
Internet for long periods of time, for instance through a cable or DSL
modem or an intranet. DoorStop was originally developed by Open Door for
use on servers such as AppleShare IP and Open Door's ShareWay IP
Professional. DoorStop Personal Edition is a greatly simplified version of
the server product, and makes protecting Mac OS TCP/IP services as simple
as clicking on the services' icons. DoorStop 1.1 new features include:
- User notification on specific connections being denied and/or allowed by DoorStop
- Ability to grow the DoorStop Admin window to show more services
- Customized icons for additional services
- Minor bug fixes
The 1.1 upgrade is free to all registered DoorStop Personal users, and available from Open Door's web site.
