Comment: Windows 7 Firewall has outbound blocking, but most people don't know that you have to turn it on. When outbound blocking is turned on, it only allows the programs and services you specify to talk to the net. Malware will have a hard time reporting back to their servers. However, it is missing a feature that tells you what it has blocked outbound. So after installing a program that needs to connect to the net, like your antivirus program, you have test those exe files one by one to see which is responsible for talking.
