    Windows Firewall Question - User specific rules
    « on: March 05, 2011, 05:51:32 PM »
    I'd like to ask if I can have different Windows Firewall profiles for different users on the computer.

    For example, lets say I have user 1 and I want to configure all access without restrictions.

    For use 2, I want to block all access to 172.*.*.*, both ways.

    It seems I am not able to find how I can configure the Windows Firewall this way.  Please let me know if it's possible, or if people user a thirdparty app for something like this.  Thanks.

    Why not just use group policy editor to edit user controls ? ?
