"WiFree" is a software brought to you by NetFree, which blocks any internet connection that is not being filtered by NetFree. The ability to connect to unfiltered internet is mainly a problem on wireless connections, where the internet connection is through WiFi, because in these cases the device can be connected to any other WiFi network that is not filtered by NetFree. The software scans the connection, and in a case where the connection is not through NetFree (even if there is another filter), it will block the connection. This software is also very important where the connection to NetFree is through a VPN, as in such cases as well, if the VPN is off then the device will be opened to unfiltered internet.

Note: As of now this software works only on Windows OS, not on a Mac OS neither on an Iphone or Android.

WARNING

The software blocks internet access which is not from NetFree, and in cases where it is not wanted, removal of the software requires a procedure which costs 100 NIS.
