Every executable application on the desktop or in the Windows Explorer was supplemented with several new content menu items providing you with the way to review and adjust the access control. "

I'll admit this is a nice frontend type tool... but its a shame what it controls is still so bad.

This is akin to puting a gold plated steering wheel into an Isuzu.

The M$ jest at a firewall has long been proven to be a 2nd rate port blocker.
Anyone with any amount of interest in security an just a little knowledge knows not to us XP's built in securities.

Kudos on the tool, but how about putting the effort toward something more useful?
