Title: Stop .exe, .rar, .zip, etc downloads, but not .pdf Post by: HydraH on Sunday 28 June 2009, 10:01:03 am Hi,
I haven't started using Endian yet; there is something I wish to clear before I start. At a 's place in his university room, I had seen that the connection was limited in such a way that we could open any page we liked, but we could not freely download anything: we could not download .avi or .wmv or ., etc, but the net worked smoothly. Now can I use Endian to restrict the downloads of .exe, .wmv, .rar, .zip, etc. files, but allow the downloads of educational books like .pdf or .doc or .txt (or any other)? The second thing is, is this a Linux firewall, or can it be used in Windows as well? I'm already using Comodo with XP. Would really appreciate some help. Thanks.

but i think endian is no as same as komodo endian need to be deployed on a server, maybe a dedicated one.. while komodo is a software than u install into a windows machine endian is not a software than can be installed on a windows.. maybe u can assume that endian is an OS :P Title: Re: Stop .exe, .rar, .zip, etc downloads, but not .pdf Post by: khae on Tuesday 07 July 2009, 08:29:15 pm endian firewall is a complete operative system;
Is not an application to use in windows ;) it should work in a dedicated server bye Title: Re: Stop .exe, .rar, .zip, etc downloads, but not .pdf Post by: richardr on Wednesday 15 July 2009, 06:43:22 pm You can block MIME-types with Endian quite effectively :)

From your answers I think installing Endian is not the option for me, since I run a home computer.
