I am Eugene here. I am new to comodo firewall. May I know how I can you comodo firewall to block users from downloading files from the internet as well as email attachment from outlook, gmail, hotmail, yahoo mail and so on…
Filtering what you receive through email is not going to be an achievable task full stop. (Without thousand dollar software anyway).
Find the IP address of the website, ping the address in Command prompt:
goto www.whois.sc and type in the website and note the IP.
OR:
NOTE: ignore all " " " and “()” when typing the following
Go to: Start
run
Type “cmd”
type "Ping (the website)
note down the IP
Stopping someone from accessing a certain site would require 2 rules added to the ruleslist as follows:
Action : Block
protocol : TCP or UDP
Direction : Out
Source ip : any
destination ip : (IP you want to block) (If their is an option to block ALL communications, this would be desirable)
source port : any
destination port : any
Action : Block
protocol : TCP or UDP (If their is an option to block ALL communications, this would be desirable)
Direction : IN
Source ip : (IP you want to block)
destination ip : any (Your local LAN, or specify an IP for a specific computer)
source port : any
destination port : any
Put these 2 rules at the top of the list.
This will stop all communication to and from the bad website.
