You are able to use the program, however, features that uses the system settings will not work. see section on AD1 ________________________________ FQ1 - FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS * What is WinSock2? WinSock ("Windows Sockets") is an interface in your computer between the applications that you use (Explorer, Netscape, Eudora, Word, etc.) and the Operating System. This layer controls how your applications will interact with the rest of the computer. WinSock2 is an updated release of the original WinSock, adding new functionality and capabilites to Windows operating systems, thereby allowing your system to do more. Older machines may notice a slight slow down to some activities. * What will WinSock2 do to my PC? WinSock2 will enable your system to work with new applications that rely on improved WinSock features and management. Some older applications may not work and older machines may be slowed down slightly by WinSock2. * How do I install (uninstall ) WinSock2? Most WinSock2 kits are self-installing. If you install WinSock2 and have already attempted an installation, please reinstall McAfee Firewall completely after rebooting your PC. Most WinSock2 installation kits include an uninstall option and backup features. * Where do I get information about WinSock2 and the kit? WinSock2 is a free upgrade available from many sources including (but not limited to) software.com, download.com, ZDNet, Microsoft and Tucows. You can also download an update at: http://www.microsoft.com/windows95/downloads/ contents/wuadmintools/s_wunetworkingtools/ w95sockets2/default.asp * What does McAfee Firewall do? How does it do it? McAfee Firewall filters traffic at the devices that your system uses - network cards and modems. This means that McAfee Firewall can reject inbound traffic before that traffic can reach vital functions in your PC and before it can waste valuable system resources. McAfee Firewall does this by monitoring applications that are either trusted or not trusted. When trusted applications need to access a network, McAfee Firewall manages everything in the computer to allow that application's traffic. When McAfee Firewall see non-trusted applications trying to access a network, it blocks all traffic to and from that application. Some network communications are needed to maintain network-based services. These are managed through user defined rules under the SYSTEM button. The default SYSTEM settings will provide protection from hostile threats. The installation routine will prompt with some basic questions to set up McAfee Firewall to do what you need (e.g. allow fileshares or not). * APPLICATION and SYSTEM: What do they mean? McAfee Firewall manages your network privacy through two large areas---APPLICATION traffic and SYSTEM traffic. APPLICATION traffic is based on trusting or not trusting applications that you know and use. SYSTEM traffic is more static and will allow or not allow things like fileshares and ICMP (control) traffic. When you click on APPLICATION, you must choose whether you will automatically trust all applications or not. If you choose to trust all applications, everthing that applications on your PC try to do will automatically be allowed. This is probably not a good thing to do, is it will open your PC to attack. If you choose to not trust applications, McAfee Firewall will begin to manage a "trusted" list and a "not trusted" list. You can always click on APPLICATION to see these lists and move known applications around. Once McAfee Firewall knows an application, it remembers it the next time the McAfee Firewall or the application in question is run. As new applications are run in the "not-trusted" mode, the system will prompt you for whether to trust this application or not. If McAfee Firewall asks you about an application that you know you are not currently running, or you do not have on your system, care should be taken in trusting it. Make certain you know what you are doing. While McAfee Firewall blocks the trojan horse, Back Oriface (BO), be default, it provides a good example of what might happen with other suspect applications. As BO attempted to run on your system and communicate out, McAfee Firewall would have captured this activity and asked you whether or not to trust it. It would have appeared to you as an application without an icon. Since you don't know what is happening, block it. System behaviour is defined under the SYSTEM button on a per device basis. Each device can have its own behaviour. For example, a network card may allow fileshares (sharing computer resources between trusted computers using the NetBIOS protocol); but that could be turned off over a modem to the Internet. The same applies to other basic services. For the most part, you need not concern yourself with protocols such as ARP, ICMP, NetBEUI and the like. If you need them, you probably know what they are. * What does the McAfee Firewall main window show? The MAIN window of McAfee Firewall (below the FILE, APPLICATION, SYSTEM, SYSTRAY and HELP tabs) shows activity that is live on your system. It also provides you with "radio-buttons" for global options like logging and overall behaviour of McAfee Firewall. * What do SUMMARY and DETAIL mean? SUMMARY shows basic applications that are trusted or not trusted in the main window of McAfee Firewall. DETAIL splits the main window into a left-hand summary side and a right-hand detail side that describe the network activity on your system. * What is the left-hand side for in DETAIL mode? The left-hand side show the two major network activity areas in your system: APPLICATION traffic and SYSTEM traffic. It also shows red current activity icon and blue log icon (if logging is enabled). Note that this is similar to the window's appearance when running SUMMARY mode with the addition of the current activity and log icons. When there is activity in the application area, a "+" sign appears in front of the icon. Clicking on the "+" sign will make it a "-" sign and will show the applications that McAfee Firewall is currently monitoring. There is always a "+" or a "-" in front of the system and application icons. This works exactly the same way as Windows Explorer, except that McAfee Firewall presents activities and applications (not files and folders). Each application can also be in a closed, explicit or inactive state. If a "+" or "-" sign appears in front of an application, that application is doing something. Clicking on the "+" or "-" sign will cause it to change state. In the explicit state, the application traffic will show "real-time" with red (block) arrows or green (allow) arrows for traffic direction and an icon to show the type of traffic as well as IP address or system names for the traffic. Applications with a red "X" on them are untrusted applications. * What is the right-hand side for in DETAIL mode? The right-hand side shows details on items that are highlighted on the left-hand side. * What does an X on an application mean? An "X" means that the application is not trusted and is being blocked by McAfee Firewall. * What do the little + and - signs mean and how do I use them? As described in section D., the "+" and "-" indicate activity in an item. The "+" sign is a closed state and shows not details. When the "+" sign is clicked, it becomes a "-" sign and represents an explicit state that shows details on the left-hand side of the main window. * The system is prompting me to trust an application. What should I do? The system will treat applications in one of two ways: (1)trust all applications or (2)don't trust all applications. This is set by clicking on APPLICATION and removing or adding a check mark to the TRUST ALL APPLICATIONS box. When there is no check mark here, McAfee Firewall will build a trusted list and a not-trusted list of applications. As new applications are run, if McAfee Firewall does not trust all applications, it will prompt the user to decide how it should treat each application. To change the status of an application, click on APPLICATION and move the application in question from the left, trusted list to or from the right, not-trusted list. NOTE-trusted applications can send and receive traffic; not-trusted applications can not. * Log files: Where are my log files and how do they work? The log files reside in the Private Desktop folder. This folder is in C:\PROGRAM FILES\McAfee\McAfee Firewall unless you chose another folder at installation. The files are of the format YYYYMM.log. For example, in September of 1999, the current log file will be 199909.log. Each log file can be up to 2 MB in size before warnings are generated by the system and only essential messages are then written. If there is no log file, a new one is built for the current month. This means that a full log file can be deleted or renamed, and a new one will instantly replace it. The log file is in a ".txt" format and can be read with any text editor. * Network Control Buttons: What do they do? The NETWORK CONTROL buttons are at top left of the McAfee Firewall application window. They determine the overall behaviour of McAfee Firewall. Only one button can be selected at a time here: The first BLOCK EVERYTHING button will cause all traffic to be blocked regardless of any options chosen anywhere else. The second FILTER TRAFFIC button will cause all traffic to be processed as defined by options chosen elsewhere in McAfee Firewall. The final ALLOW EVERYTHING button will cause all traffic to be allowed, regardless of options chosen elsewhere in McAfee Firewall. This is a permissive mode and effectively turns off all protection provided by McAfee Firewall. * Display Buttons: What do they do? The DISPLAY buttons are in the top middle of the McAfee Firewall application window. They determine the single screen or split screen nature of the main portion of the McAfee Firewall window. * System Tray: How can McAfee Firewall start in the system tray? Click on SYS TRAY and select "Start in System Tray" * Auto Start: How can McAfee Firewall run automatically when I start my PC? You need to put a shortcut to the McAfee Firewall icon in the startup folder. This is C:\WINDOWS\ START MENU\ PROGRAM\STARTUP. This will make McAfee Firewall run instantly when your system is booted. * Network traffic: Why does McAfee Firewall shut off existing network traffic when it is launched? McAfee Firewall is first and foremost a security product. If you suspect you are under attack, launching McAfee Firewall will quickly and effectively terminate hostile network traffic. Any applications that you were running before launching McAfee Firewall, will now be monitored. Having stated the above, we recommend that McAfee Firewall always be run upon system startup. * Internet dialup connection is lost when McAfee Firewall is closed. McAfee Firewall forces you to disconnect and reconnect from the Internet when it is closed. If you have attracted hostile attention, this will help because it will give your PC a new IP address. If someone was attacking you when you closed McAfee Firewall, this will force him or her to find you again before resuming an attack. Make certain your McAfee Firewall is always active when connected to other systems. We recommend that McAfee Firewall be run upon system startup and remain on during your entire session. ____________________________ AD1 - ADDITIONAL INFORMATION * Fixed System Tray menu items for Block, Filter and Allow. * Fixed bug that, under certain circumstances, would block traffic for up to 8 seconds when a new IP address was assigned. * Fixed a bug in that prevents VPN's from connecting. * Added a warning about using the "Record Application Traffic" option, since it can use a lot of disk space very quickly. ___________________________________ NA1 - CONTACTING NETWORK ASSOCIATES On December 1, 1997, McAfee Associates merged with Network General Corporation, Pretty Good Privacy, Inc., and Helix Software, Inc. to form Network Associates, Inc.
