How is SterJo NetStalker working?

This simple application works as a firewall software. It will protect your PC from any unwanted internet activity. It will watch on TCP and UDP connections which are currently enabled by services and applications you have running on your PC. Being a network traffic monitor it means that it will monitor your network traffic (for free). You will be able to block any unwanted process which is the result of internet access.

After launching the application, it will automatically scan all services and processes currently running on your PC. They will be listed under the Activity tab and you will also be able too see info related to local and remote IP addresses, and port, as well as the current status of the service. A status bar will inform you about all these connection's activity. If this internet traffic monitor notices any suspicious process that could be harmful for your PC security, a window will pop up so you will be able to quit the process and destroy it, or to allow the process to access the internet. This network monitoring software is smart enough to block those processes that don't hold with your network rules you've defined.

You can choose between Accept and reject action. To define the rules, go to the Policy tab. To add new rules, use the "Add a New Rule" option. You will get some pre-configured policies in order to help you get started. They can also be modified later. The Security menu is offering you to change modes of the application, so you can allow, filter or block the traffic. You may also pause the traffic. SterJo NetStalker is that simple.

One of the possibilities this free network monitoring software offers you is to track all the internet activity and be saved in files. There is the Log tab that saves all the logs and the History tab that saves all the actions you make.

• CLOSED: There is no connection.
• LISTENING: The local end-point is waiting for a connection request from a remote end-point i.e. a passive open was performed.
• SYN_SENT: The first step of the three-way connection handshake was performed. A connection request has been sent to a remote end-point i.e. an active open was performed.
• SYN_RCVD: The second step of the three-way connection handshake was performed. An acknowledgement for the received connection request as well as a connection request has been sent to the remote end-point.
• ESTABLISHED: The third step of the three-way connection handshake was performed. The connection is open.
• FIN_WAIT1: The first step of an active close (four-way handshake) was performed. The local end-point has sent a connection termination request to the remote end-point.
• CLOSE_WAIT: The local end-point has received a connection termination request and acknowledged it e.g. a passive close has been performed and the local end-point needs to perform an active close to leave this state.
• FIN_WAIT2: The remote end-point has sent an acknowledgement for the previously sent connection termination request. The local end-point waits for an active connection termination request from the remote end-point.
• LAST_ACK: The local end-point has performed a passive close and has initiated an active close by sending a connection termination request to the remote end-point.
• CLOSING: The local end-point is waiting for an acknowledgement for a connection termination request before going to the TIME-WAIT state.
• TIME_WAIT: The local end-point waits for twice the maximum segment lifetime (MSL) to pass before going to CLOSED to be sure that the remote end-point received the acknowledgement.
