Turn off Smart Advice

When you turn off Smart Advice, the alerts you receive do not include any recommendations about how to handle Internet access for programs. Personal Firewall only blocks a program from accessing the Internet automatically if the detected program is suspicious or known to be a threat.

1 Open the Firewall settings page.
2 Click Smart Advice and Advanced Settings.
3 Clear Enable Smart Advice.
4 Click Apply.
