I have a question about using SecureAnywhere Complete as outbound firewall control of Windows 7 FW. I love that Webroot gives me the option of choosing to allow a process access to the Internet by answering Block, Allow Once, or Always. I use Allow Once for everything and have the firewall setting set at Warn if any process connects to the Internet unless explicitly allowed. My question is this: Why when I use Internet Explorer 11 why does WSA Complete ask to Allow Once at least 4 or 5 times in a row? This has been an issue for me for almost three years now, so it's not a deal breaker because after my initial three years I signed up for five more a couple of months ago. That's how incredible I think WSA is as a security solution. It's a shame more people don't understand how it works or they feel the need to have another security program to back WSA up.

 

Back to my issue. When I use Firefox or any other program that asks for internet access, Webroot asks just once and I answer. When opening IE11, I have to click Allow Once 4 or 5 times and it is annoying. I will not set action to default at Always because I am a freak about what on my PC gets internet access and what does not. I want to be in contol and Webroot designed the perfect interface for someone like myself. Comodo FW also offers up something similar but I feel Windows 7 FW and Webroot are enough and I love how light in every way this combination is. Any ideas? Thank you in advance for any thoughts you might have.
