Outpost Firewall Pro 2.0 released - Infos, Screenshots, DL

Sicherheit & Antivirus Endlich ist sie da - die lange erwartete 2.0-Version der Firewall Outpost. Ich benutze Outpost bereits seit über einem Jahr und habe auch sämtliche Beta-Versionen der 2er Version getestet und muss sagen - diese Firewall ist sicherlich eine der besten auf dem Markt - gerade die kostenpflichtige Pro-Version (und ich hatte alle einmal am laufen, Kerio, Norton, ZoneAlarm und wie sie alle heissen - sicherlich alles gute Firewalls, die zu Recht jede für sich ihre Anhängerschaft begeistern) - aber ich bin bei Outpost "hängen" geblieben.

Besitzer der 1er Pro-Version können übrigens kostenlos upgraden, weitere Infos hier:
