URL Content Filter work better than traditional firewall in the field of filtering? Because it
checks the URL strings or some of HTTP data hiding in the payload of TCP packets while
legacy firewall inspects packets based on the fields of TCP/IP headers only.
On the other hand, Vigor modem can prevent user from accidentally downloading malicious
codes from web pages. It's very common that malicious codes conceal in the executable
objects, such as ActiveX, Java Applet, compressed files, and other executable files. Once
downloading these types of files from websites, you may risk bringing threat to your system.
For example, an ActiveX control object is usually used for providing interactive web feature.
If malicious code hides inside, it may occupy user's system.
For example, if you add key words such as "sex", Vigor modem will limit web access to web
sites or web pages such as "www.sex.com", "www.backdoor.net/images/sex/p_386.html".
Or you may simply specify the full or partial URL such as "www.sex.com" or "sex.com".
