Windows Firewall Control 3.1.0.3

What's new in version 3.1.0.3
- New: Manage Rules contains a new button named "Find Invalid Rules". The firewall rules which reffering executable files that were removed from the disk but still have defined firewall rules, will be highlighted. This applies to the current view
from the list.

Alexandru
