"online security ultimately comes down to individual decisions... what each user is or is not comfortable with. very much a who do you trust game. i figure that in many situations, there is no resolving." It is for me, especially since I am not an expert. If Naviscope's Pro version has a more articulated and defined firewall builtin, I'd be interested. I also want to be clear that I think Naviscope is a really cool program and I think other users would probably enjoy using it. The ad blocker feature was nice, no doubt. Since I started using Zonealarm, I have been amazed by the frequency with which I have been "visited." Scary. So, security is a much bigger issue for me than it was in the past when the only way I knew I was being hacked was when someone nuked me <g>. Reviewing Naviscope was my pleasure. best, Rick
