Here are some key features of "Firewalk X":

TCP, UDP, and ICMP packet filtering, both incoming and outgoing
Self optimizes to current network activity
Interactive, real-time alerting
Time expiring firewall rules
Compatible with Mac OS X’s built-in firewall
Can restrict network access to specific applications
User and IP address specific application rules
Detailed logging of events
Automatic setting changes for different network locations
Multithreaded for optimal performance
Port scan and packet flood detection
Nicely integrated with Mac OS X for transparent operation
Full Unicode support

What's New:
Fixed problem with connections being broken when switching Firewalk X 2 to active/inactive
Improved network interface detection so interfaces such as tunnels can be detected
Fixed problem where displayed application names would not be localized
Fixed problem with some settings (such as status item and alert users) not sticking or working.
