Lavasoft, Well-known anti-spyware pioneer, today announced the release of Personal Firewall 3.0, redesigned with the latest in firewall technology to protect computer users against today's IT security threats, such as hackers, botnets, keyloggers, and other forms of malware that attack through unpatched security holes.Jason King, Lavasoft CEO, says: "With uncertainty for Internet privacy and cyber attacks at an all time high, a top priority for computer users is protecting their vulnerable data". Only 4% of Americans understand Firewalls completely, according to a survey by NCSA Cyber Security, and over 46% are not sure if they have Firewall protection at all.

This new version offers selective network access policies and allows PC users to take advantage of the convenient learning mode in order to reduce the number of alerts requiring a response.
