GlassWire 防火牆與網路監控,能幫你解決什麼

GlassWire 軟體圖示 GlassWire 2.0.123 資料更新 2018-06-26 閱讀約 7 分鐘

你打開工作管理員,看到一堆看不懂的程式名稱在背景執行,網路速度忽快忽慢,卻不知道是哪個程式在偷偷上傳或下載資料。你懷疑電腦是不是中了什麼東西,或者某個軟體在背後偷吃頻寬,但你就是找不到證據。這種「明明有問題卻抓不到兇手」的感覺,比電腦變慢本身更讓人不舒服。

一般人會先想到用工作管理員看,但工作管理員只顯示當下的 CPU 和記憶體使用率,對網路流量的細節幾乎幫不上忙。傳統防火牆又太技術導向,打開介面全是看不懂的規則和連接埠,設定錯誤反而讓自己斷網。這類工具的切入點是:把網路活動變成看得懂的圖表和清單,讓你知道哪個程式、哪個時段、用了多少流量,並且能直接擋掉你不想放行的連線。

GlassWire 操作介面
GlassWire 的操作介面

01GlassWire 到底能看什麼?我裝了之後第一眼會看到什麼?

它主要提供四種資訊:即時網路流量圖、每個程式的流量排行、每日每週每月的用量統計、以及防火牆的連線控管。打開主畫面會先看到一條即時流量曲線圖,下方有「圖表」「用量」「防火牆」「警示」四個分頁,分別對應不同功能。你可以直接從圖表看出哪個時間點流量暴衝,再點進去確認是哪個程式造成的。

02它跟 Windows 內建的防火牆差在哪?我已經有內建防火牆了,還需要它嗎?

Windows 內建防火牆只做「擋或不擋」的判斷,不會告訴你哪個程式在什麼時候嘗試連線、連到哪個 IP、傳輸了多少資料。GlassWire 把這些連線記錄變成圖表和清單,讓你可以回頭查看某個程式過去一週的網路行為。如果你只是想要「能擋就好」,內建的夠用;但如果你想「知道誰在連線、連去哪裡」,它提供的視覺化記錄是內建防火牆沒有的。

03它說可以偵測入侵和惡意軟體,這功能實際上是怎麼運作的?

它會監控程式的連線行為,當某個程式第一次嘗試連上網路、或出現異常的大量連線時,會跳出警示通知你。它也會比對已知的惡意程式特徵,提醒你可能有間諜軟體或木馬在活動。要注意的是,它做的是「行為偵測」和「特徵比對」,不是完整的防毒軟體,不能取代防毒程式,但可以當作第二道防線,幫你發現防毒軟體沒抓到的可疑連線。

04我可以用它來限制某個程式不要連網嗎?比如某個軟體一直自動更新很煩。

可以。在防火牆分頁裡,你會看到所有嘗試連網的程式清單,每個程式旁邊有開關,直接切掉就能封鎖該程式的所有連線。你也可以選擇只封鎖特定連線,例如讓某個程式能連區域網路但不能連網際網路。設定是即時生效的,不需要重開機。不過要注意,封鎖之後如果該程式是系統必要元件,可能導致某些功能異常,封鎖前最好確認一下。

05它的流量統計是怎麼算的?我想知道每個月到底用了多少數據。

它會分別記錄每個程式的上傳和下載量,並以日、週、月為單位彙整成圖表。你可以切換時間範圍,查看某一天或某個月的總流量,也能看到單一程式在特定時段的用量。這些數據是它自己持續在背景記錄的,不是從電信商那邊抓資料,所以如果你用手機分享網路給電腦,它記錄的是電腦實際接收和傳送的數據量,不是手機的總用量。

06我電腦不太行,這套軟體跑起來會不會很佔資源?

它主要是在背景持續記錄網路連線和流量,對系統資源的消耗不算大,一般使用情況下不太會影響日常操作。不過它需要常駐在系統列才能持續監控,如果你把它完全關閉,記錄就會中斷。如果你很在意資源佔用,可以安裝後觀察幾天,看它在你電腦上的實際表現再決定要不要留著。每個人的硬體環境不同,這部分沒有絕對的答案。

07這套軟體適合什麼樣的人用?我只是一般使用者,不是專業 IT 人員。

它的介面設計對非技術使用者相對友善,主要功能都用圖表和開關呈現,不需要懂網路協定或連接埠就能操作。如果你曾經懷疑某個程式在偷吃頻寬、或想知道電腦是不是有奇怪的連線行為,它會比傳統防火牆容易上手。但它的介面是英文的,如果你對英文介面不熟悉,操作上會多一層障礙,這點要先考慮進去。

08我有多台電腦,可以一次監控全部嗎?

官方說明提到它支援在同一網路下監控多台 PC。實際做法是每台電腦都要安裝 GlassWire,然後它們會出現在同一個帳號或網路檢視底下,讓你可以從一台電腦看到其他台的使用狀況。不過這需要每台機器都安裝並保持執行,設定上會比單機使用複雜一些。如果你只有一台電腦需要監控,這個功能就用不太到。

09它跟 NetWorx 或 NetLimiter 比起來,主要差在哪?我該怎麼選?

這幾套都做網路流量監控,但側重點不同。GlassWire 的強項是視覺化圖表和防火牆整合,NetWorx 比較偏流量統計和用量報告,NetLimiter 則主打即時限速和連線控制。如果你主要想知道「誰在用流量」,GlassWire 的圖表最直觀;如果你是想「限制某個程式的最大速度」,NetLimiter 那類工具可能更符合需求。建議先想清楚你要的是監看還是控速,再決定裝哪一套。

10它是免費的嗎?還是要付費才能用完整功能?

它的授權型式是 Demo,也就是試用版。試用期間可以使用完整功能,但試用結束後部分功能會受到限制,例如歷史記錄的保留長度或某些進階設定可能無法使用。具體的試用期限和限制,官方網站上會有說明,安裝前建議先確認清楚。如果你只是短期需要監控網路,試用版可能就夠用;如果要長期使用,就要考慮付費購買授權。

11我的系統是 Windows 7,裝了會不會有問題?

官方列出的支援系統包含 Windows 7 到 Windows 11,理論上可以安裝。不過要注意,這套軟體近年更新頻率不高,近兩年只更新了兩次,對新系統的支援可能比較即時,但舊系統如果遇到問題,官方修復的速度可能不會太快。另外它的介面只有英文,Windows 7 使用者如果習慣中文介面,操作上會需要多花時間適應。

12什麼樣的情況我不該選它?有沒有哪種人用了會覺得後悔?

如果你只是想要一個「設定一次就忘記」的防火牆,它可能不是最佳選擇,因為它的核心價值在於持續監控和查看記錄,需要你偶爾打開介面看圖表才有意義。如果你完全看不懂英文介面,操作門檻會明顯提高。另外,它的使用者評分只有 6.4 分,評分人數也不多,如果你習慣參考大規模使用者回饋來決定是否安裝,這點可能讓你有疑慮。功能相近的 NetWorx 有較多評分人數,可以一併參考比較。
