My apologies if this has been posted before, but the greatest issue I am currently facing is the lack of differentiation between administrative and standard users with regards to the ability to create rules. On one computer family/friends often log into the guest or a standard user account to access the internet, play a game, etc. with no malicious intent. However, they have next to no comprehension of computer security or anything beyond the most basic of tasks, and so whenever a firewall alert pops up they immediately click either Allow or Deny because of the proximity to the cursor and a desire to not be bothered. (This despite pleading with them to simply ask for my intervention whenever an alert appears.) Needless to say this is problematic in the least. (So far they have done everything from blocking all internet access to allowing a file scan attack.)
Now, there is the ability to suppress all popups when enabling the parental controls (password protection), but it disables popups for all users, which prevents me from taking the appropriate action when enabled. That forces me to enable protection whenever I log off and disable protection as soon as I log back on, a huge inconvenience. What I would like, or should I say need, is the ability for Comodo Firewall Pro. to differentiate between administrative and standard users, enabling the administrator to hide popups from standard users. Rather than give them the option of allowing or blocking the application/connection, it would merely alert them that it is temporarily being blocked by default and to contact an administrator, who would be notified upon the following login.
Would such be possible in the near future?
