Sounds like it may be more of a virus problem..
Anyway, I've got an Anti-Virus/Firewall from Panda
Software called Panda Antivirus Platinum 7.
As I am a net admin, they gave me a free version, in
hopes that I would recommend it for my company when
the time comes.
It works good. Everytime any connection in either
direction makes a request, it ask if you want to
Allow it for this connection only
Allow it always
Dis-allow it for this connection only
Dis-allow it always
Worked like Zone Alarm that I used to Have and Black
Ice.
