Windows 7 Firewall Tutorial

In this screencast we look at the Windows 7 Firewall. We look briefly at the settings in the beginning, but most of the screencast discusses how the Windows 7 Firewall treats applications based on your answers to the Windows Security Dialog it provides you with.

They say Windows 7 firewall is one way but if we want we can turn it to two-way firewall. Can you make another video about this and about advanced settings too? Do we need to change anything in the firewall default settings? Thanks

@ilkerol1986 - Yes, I believe you can make it two way. When you open the Advanced Settings window you see "Outbound Rules". I'm sure you just need to set up the rules accordingly. I haven't had need to do it personally is all. I can do a video on the advanced features and we can see how well the outgoing rules work in it.

Thank you for the upload and here's a question for you. Do you consider windows 7 firewall to be more efficient than the KIS2012 firewall, or the comodo firewall? Which of those three would you recommend?
