Background
There have been 3 firewall plugin for NSIS: Firewall-Disabler Plugin, NSIS Simple Firewall Plugin and NsisFirewall Plugin. But all of them has some shortcomings, so I just write one: liteFirewall. It's based on nsisFirewall. Thanks to it's author.
- Firewall-Disbler plugin: No one will use it.
- NsisFirewall plug-in: It doesn’t support firewall profiles (private, domain or public) on Vista/Windows 7.
- NSIS Simple Firewall Plugin: It doesn’t support Unicode NSIS.
- liteFirewall plug-in: It support both Unicode NSIS and firewall profiles.
Presentation
liteFirewall is based on nsisFirewall, and it also allows you to perform easily 2 tasks:
- Add an application to Windows Firewall exception list
- Remove an application from Windows Firewall exception list
The advantage of liteFirewall compared to nsisFirewall is it can automatically figure out the current profile of windows firewall, and add a corresponding rule for your application.
