McAfee Firewall 4.0
System configuration
Your computer’s operating system performs many types of network
communication without reporting directly to you. McAfee Firewall lets you
explicitly allow or block different system functions. Settings may be different
for each network device, since a computer, for example, can be connected to
an internal network as well as having a dial-up connection to the Internet.

You can then choose to allow or block NetBIOS over TCP, Identification,
ICMP, ARP, DHCP, RIP, PPTP and other protocols (IP and non-IP).

NetBIOS over TCP:
Blocked
Blocked
This will block all file share activity over TCP as well
as UDP broadcasts. Your system will not appear in
anyone's “Network Neighborhood” and theirs will not
appear in yours. If your system is configured to
support NetBIOS over other protocols, such as IPX
or NetBEUI, then file sharing may be allowed if
“non-IP protocols” are allowed (see “Other
Protocols” below).

ARP: Allowed
ARP is a necessary Ethernet protocol and is not

DHCP: Allowed if your
system uses DHCP
system uses DHCP
The program looks in your system Registry to see if
one of your network devices uses DHCP. If so, then
DHCP is allowed for all devices. If not, then it is
blocked for all devices. If you have more than one
network device and one uses DHCP, you should
check the DHCP setting for each device and allow
only for the device that uses it (most often cable or
ADSL modems and some internal networks, not for
dial-up).
