Any .jar executable or java program can connect to the Internet bypassing Simplewall rules.

.jar is NOT an executable and working through Java Framework executable, and, obviously, this executable is in allowed list.

The .jar I ran isn't running it via the Java executable (I assume you mean javaw.exe?). I use whitelist mode. What do you mean by allowed list? The jar file I ran connects to the internet without showing any notifications to allow/block program.

Actually now when I run the .jar it doesn't connect automatically and first shows notification to allow or deny for javaw.exe. Weird....I don't know why it didn't show up before.

Yes, through javaw.exe and allowed list is a simplewall main window list separated by groups (allowed/blocked), and if you allowed javaw.exe then this app has checkbox in main window and is in allowed group!

ps: sorry i'm late!
