If you have Spyware Doctor installed, you will need to upgrade to SD v6.1.0.448 in order to install the latest version of PCTFW.
The new features and enhancements include:

Users can either modify the included default Profiles or create any number of new ones to suit their individual needs.
- Redesigned Network Drivers the Network Drivers has undergone some major changes to provide complete stealth on untrusted networks, increased stability, full support for the Windows Filtering Platform and a new Vista hooking platform for the TCP/IP Network Layer.
- GUI Changes The main GUI, whilst maintaining the look & feel of PC Tools products, has a new design layout with functions ordered more logically on the main screen. In addition, frames within individual functions have been re-designed to provide ease-of-use and display relevant information for the end user.
- Windows 7 Support Firewall Plus has been designed to support both 32-bit and 64-bit version of the latest Microsoft operating system Windows 7.
- Complete Language Support This version now contains support for all languages. Whilst some minor translation issues still exist, formatting & presentation are good.
