I downloaded, registered, and tried this last night.
1. geocode mapping (IP address -> city/state/country) is cute, but essentially useless. I am interested in noting/blocking banner ads -- I can recognize a domain name and guess its purpose much more readily than trying to figure out if "unknown ??" is a site I really want to allow or deny. Please, please, please enable reverse DNS lookup for the lite version. Pretty please?
2. the allow/deny popup is huge and blocks too much of the underlying page-load-in-progress. Could it be smaller with a "v Details" expander selection?
The smaller popup should show
==================================
Application "name" is connecting to
Name: (rDNS name value for IPaddr) at
IP Address: nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
Allow: [X] . . Deny: []
Remember this [x]once []this run []this login []always
> Details
==================================
3. When the popup is dismissed, please return control/focus to the previous application.
4. Instead of a popup, could a menubar dropdown be used instead?
5. I like the 'alert' sound used (tick); will it be user-selectable in some future version?
Enough nit picking; thanks for the test drive!
