    <Press_Release>&lt;b&gt;Emsisoft Online Armor Firewall 5.0 available!&lt;/b&gt;

&lt;i&gt;A Firewall keeps a constant eye on the data traffic of your computer and only allows Internet and local network connections for authorized programs and processes. In recent years, Emsisoft Online Armor has made a name for itself as a comprehensive security solution that is also easy to understand and operate for those who are not computer experts.&lt;/i&gt;

&lt;i&gt;This Firewall not only protects the user against attacks from the Internet but also allows permanent monitoring of suspicious system-internal processes. Online Armor is therefore also a full-featured HIPS (Host Intrusion Protection System), in other words a type of Firewall for internal operating system processes. &lt;/i&gt;

&lt;b&gt;Emsisoft Online Armor 5.0: An overview of the new features &lt;/b&gt;

&lt;b&gt;* New user interface&lt;/b&gt;

Version 5.0 of the Firewall has a completely reworked user interface. This is based on the design of the other Emsisoft products. In addition to creating a unified product appearance for Emsisoft programs, the aim was also to greatly simplify the operating concept. The opportunity was also taken to improve the readability of the alert window messages displayed directly above the Taskbar System Tray when an alert is generated.

&lt;b&gt;* New feature: File &amp; Registry Shield&lt;/b&gt;

Online Armor 5.0 now also protects selected files, folders and registry keys from being changed. A rule system based on trust-level settings exactly defines the programs that have full access, partial access or no access to the protected areas. This provides special protection to the user against ransomware attacks, where important documents are encrypted and ransom money is demanded for the encryption key. 

&lt;b&gt;* Improved self-protection&lt;/b&gt;

Online Armor itself now offers improved self-protection on both x86 and x64 systems, giving you that additional peace of mind that your system is protected all round against manipulation from malware and hackers.

&lt;b&gt;* Alerts in the case of suspicious program paths&lt;/b&gt;

A new feature is the Guard module that checks and blocks suspicious file paths such as double file extensions, which are still very commonly used in email attachments (e.g. *.pdf.exe or *.doc.exe), Unicode paths (characters that appear similar) and supposed system files that are actually in the wrong location.

&lt;b&gt;* Over 400 improvements in various details&lt;/b&gt;

Emsisoft works very closely with the user community. As a result of direct customer feedback, over 400 improvements to various details have been made when compared to version 4.5. 

&lt;b&gt;Pricing information: &lt;/b&gt;

Licenses are available for 1, 2 and 3 years. Multi license packages are strongly discounted.

      <Char_Desc_2000>Online Armor FREE - powerful Windows Firewall. Provides a blend of usability and hard-wired PC security to ensure a good user experience. This award-winning program is easy to use and provides 100% leak protection out of the box.

Online Armors behavior detection ensures that even specially created or new keyloggers are detected and prevented. Kernel Mode Security Execution Protection Termination Protection Script/Worm Protection Process Guard Tamper Protection The Full version of Online Armor has many more protection features like Banking Mode, Run Safer, Webshield, Mail shield and Phishing Filter and many more.

      <Char_Desc_2000>Online Armor Personal Firewall geht weit über die Funktionalität klassicher TCP-Regelwerk Firewalls hinaus.

Der Newcomer basiert auf einer robusten kernelbasierten Technologie und gewinnt laufend Tests, u.a. Auszeichnung als Firewall of the year 2008. 

Die Desktop Firewall riegelt das System nicht nur gegen Angriffe von Außen ab, sondern überwacht auch sämtliche kritische Bereiche auf dem PC. Während übliche Firewalls nur den Datenverkehr überwachen und mit Regeln gezielt einschränken, baut Online Armor auch eine Mauer zwischen möglicherweise gefährlichen Programmaktionen und dem Betriebssystem auf. So werden auch Keylogger, Würmer, DNS Manipulationen und unberechtigte Änderungen an Autostart-Einträgen effektiv verhindert.

Im Unterschied zur kostenlosen Version bietet die Vollversion zusätzliche Funktionen wie Web-, Mail- und Phishing-Schutz, der Sie vor Zugriffen auf gefährliche und betrügerische Webseiten bewahrt. 

Neu hinzugekommen in Version 3.5 ist der spezielle Online Banking Modus. Mit einem Mausklick schalten Sie den PC in einen besonders sicheren Modus um, der ausschließlich Zugriffe auf Ihr Bankinstitut erlaubt.

Fazit: Online Armor Personal Firewall will es mit internationaler Konkurrenz vom Kaliber einer ZoneAlarm oder Comodo Firewall aufnehmen.</Char_Desc_2000>
