This is the main program for the AtGuard software firewall product. Personal opinion, AtGuard is a much better / stronger firewall than Norton Personal Firewall, but it does require more user intelligence and intervention

It's a Firewall File for NIS ver. 1.0, but once in a while I see an Outgoing UDP Blocked (I have rule to block Iamapp as an App) using IAMAPP.EXE to a one of my ISP's DNS Servers on Local Port 1107 to Remote Port domain and do not see a reason for this but I know it's the same file that is Burned on the Orginal Norton CD.
   
If it bleeds, we can kill it . . .
