Winroute-
Download shareware. WinRoute is a 32-bit Internet access application for
Windows 95 and Windows NT operating systems. WinRoute connects a local computer
network to the Internet through a simple and secure proxy or NAT (network
address translation) server. Connection to the Internet may be through a dial-up
line, leased line, or another network adapter. The local network is routed
through, or hidden behind, a single IP address (either static or dynamic). Any
computer on the LAN can gain full, secure, and transparent access to the
Internet. WinRoute provides an IP router, a network address translator, a packet
layer firewall, a caching proxy server, a mail server, and a scheduler. It also
features network monitoring, mapping ports, logging and running as an NT service
(if installed on Windows NT). (Recommend)
Winscan
- WinScan
gives administrators a way to see what ports are vulnerable on an Internet
machine. Just enter an IP address and select a range of ports to check. WinScan
then tries each one to see if it can communicate to any of them. Results are
displayed as the ports are checked. In host mode, WinScan tests all ports that
you specify by range or individually for a particular TCP/IP address. In network
mode, it scans an entire class C subnet, testing each IP address for every port
in your specification. This can take a significant amount of time because
testing can be performed on 255 devices, each with as many ports as you specify.
The result of WinScan's test is a report of all open or reachable ports on a
device. This can give you insight as to where you might not be as secure as you
might have thought. Findings can be saved to a file or printed for comparisons
and logging. This program is free, and the archive contains both GUI and
command-line versions. (Free)
ZoneAlarm
is an easy-to-use Internet security utility that sets up a personal firewall
that's particularly well suited to DSL and cable modem users. Computers with
such an always-on connection have a permanent IP address, making them especially
vulnerable to information theft and other attacks. ZoneAlarm lets you select one
of three security levels to separately apply to local and Internet traffic. In
addition, you can designate which programs on your computer are allowed to
access the Internet. Anytime an event occurs that ZoneAlarm blocks, you're
notified with a pop-up window that details the offense and asks how to respond
to future occurrences. The program also provides integrated protection against
VB script email attachments. Its system-tray icon even provides a handy menu
that enables you to disable all Internet activity with a mouse click. You can
also set this "lock up" to activate automatically after a selected
period of inactivity or whenever your screen saver activates. Detailed logging
of all activity is maintained. The program is free for personal use.
