Detail Level - How much detail about the connection is shown by default and how many rule creation options are shown.Note that Little Snitch ignores keystrokes for the first second after the alert appears to catch most of these accidental keystrokes. Some people prefer to use the mouse only, because they may be typing text when the alert appears, typing Return or Escape accidentally. Confirm with Return and Escape - Whether Allow and Deny can be triggered via keyboard.You could answer it yourself, if you could get around this single first alert… When you set up an alert timeout, you can answer alerts while you are in front of your computer and have them allowed or denied automatically with default settings when you are away. Confirm connection alert automatically - When you use “Back to my Mac” to log in to your computer from remote, it is frustrating to be locked out just because Little Snitch is stalling your login, waiting for somebody to answer a connection alert, but nobody is at home.Here you can decide what the defaults are, so that you can quickly create your preferred type of rule. Some prefer to make all rules temporary in the first place, some make domain rules only, while others always make their rules as specific as possible. Preselected Options - People have preferences what type of rule to create when a connection alert is shown.This option can also be changed in the status menu. Operation Mode - Choose between Alert Mode and Silent Mode here.Show inactivity warning in menu bar - With this option turned on the status menu displays a yellow warning triangle when the network filter is off.Show status in menu bar - Choose whether the status menu shall be displayed.In demo mode, without a valid license, Little Snitch deactivates the filter every three hours and you need to manually turn it on again. This can be helpful if something does not work as expected and you want to know whether one of your Little Snitch rules is the cause. Network Filter - You can turn off the entire network filter here.The relevant sentence in Apple’s statement to developers is: “Future OS releases will no longer load kernel extensions that use deprecated KPIs by default.” ↩︎
