Atelier Web Firewall Tester can be used to test the strength of a computer's firewall, if the name hasn't given that up already. The application performs a series of simple tests, to determine if your personal firewall is working the way it should. The best part is that it takes only a few seconds to complete all tests and you will have the results, as well as a few recommendations instantly.

The application is offered completely free of charge and you can have it up and running on a Windows-powered computer in no time. It is available in separate installation files, for 32 and 64-bit operating systems. You won't notice any impact on your computer's performance when running the software and you don't have to meet any special requirements.

The program's tests are essentially a series of harmless attempts to perform certain actions which should normally be blocked by the firewall. There are six tests in total and all you have to do is click their corresponding numbers, on the application's compact user interface, to carry them out immediately.

Atelier Web Firewall Tester will perform different actions, depending on which number you click. It can attempt to defeat the weakest PFs, by loading and patching a copy of your default web browser, create a thread in Windows Explorer, perform a heuristics search for proxies and other applications that are authorized to access the Internet and more.

The aforementioned tests can be completed almost instantly. When it is done, you know if your firewall passed or failed, based on the description you find on the main interface. You will also find a score, between your firewall and the application, on the same interface.

Pros

The software can perform various tests to see if your firewall is strong enough. All tests can be completed almost instantly. The program provides you with detailed descriptions after each test.

Cons

There are no serious issues to address. With Atelier Web Firewall Tester, a few clicks are all it takes to probe the capabilities of your firewall and discover any weaknesses.
