Popup settings
Inspect process launch stack
If this option is enabled, the process stack inspection allows a more accurate control. The
Firewall will assume that any of the untrustworthy processes in the stack may actually be
the one accessing the network through its child process. Therefore a different popup
window will be opened for each untrustworthy process in the process stack. This option
is disabled as the default setting.
Allow multiple popups per process
If this option is enabled, every time an application is making a network connection, a
popup is triggered. Alternatively you will be informed only on the first connection
attempt. This option is disabled as the default setting.
Automatically disable popup notification in gaming mode
When this option is active, Avira Firewall gaming mode is automatically activated when
an application is executed in full-screen mode on your computer system. In gaming
mode, all defined adapter and application rules apply. Applications for which no rules are
defined with the Allow or Deny actions are temporarily allowed to access the network, so
that no popup windows appear with questions about the network event.
