Improvements i'd like to see in firewall

when in i leave my computer running overnight i like to set fw to block all, but when i come back in the morning, i some times forget i have done this and spend the next 5-15 minutes trying to figure out why my internet connection is down.
– please change the icon in the task tray when the fw is in block all mode

i use a browser/email sand box (sand boxie) that generates a lot of temp files that are flagged to pending. i’ve tried adding the prog & the temp directory to my own safe files to no avail. After a few days the fw starts hogging resources and slowing computer operations. if i run a purge of pending all those temp files go away and the firewall stops hogging resources.
– please add option to purge pending on startup

please ignore point 2 :: Sorry, changed defense + to sate mode, and it seemed to fix it

Agree (for example icon = shield in red circle and crossing it red line ;D )

Agreed, CFP let’s you know when it’s in install mode, repeatedly.

However, if the firewall or hips is disabled CFP is silent.

A simple tray icon change would be helpful. After all it seems to me the having the protection disabled is as, if not more, important then being in install mode.
