Product Description:

A firewall protects your computer against unwanted guests from the Internet. But who protects your private data from being sent out? Little Snitch does!

Little Snitch informs you whenever a program attempts to establish an outgoing Internet connection. You can then choose to allow or deny this connection, or define a rule how to handle similar, future connection attempts. This reliably prevents private data from being sent out without your knowledge. Little Snitch runs inconspicuously in the background and it can also detect network related activity of viruses, trojans and other malware.

What's new in this version:

  • Menu Icon can now be switched off.
  • New "Action Menu" (gear wheel icon in the Monitor window): Provides menu items previously only available in the Menu Icon's menu.
  • Transferred bytes (in and out) listed in the Connection History's text representation (produced via the "Copy Connection History" menu item).
  • Port and protocol names added to Connection History's text representation.
  • Now using internationalized names for applications.
  • Fixed a problem with the login window after awake from sleep or screensaver.
  • Fixed a problem with restore factory rules.

When new connections are asked for it takes minutes for the rule to take effect and the allow changes padlock keeps locking itself after being unlocked. This is the first time I've had trouble with this application ever. Mac Pro 10.6.1 10Gb RAM

This is still not functioning properly in Leopard (10.5.8). Will not register Quicken 2007 as an application?
