How do I block OAUI.exe internet access?

Q. Is there a way to stop oaui.exe from being auto-trusted? I do not want to allow it internet access.

A. Online Armor is automatically trusted (since we know it is safe) for internet access. Some users have asked to override this, and it is possible to block Online Armor with a firewall rule, just like with any other program on your computer.

However, to avoid inconveniencing people and causing any support problems you don't receive a prompt when OAUI wants access. So, if you want to block it - you can - but we're not going to confuse everyone else :)

Important note: If you do block Online Armor from internet access, then Trusted DNS will not be available, nor will program updates, antivirus updates or Online Armor rules updates. Realtime program checking will also not be available, nor will other internet enabled features we might add in future.
