| • | Support for IPv6, including automatic handling of scoped addresses. |
| • | Automatic relative path technology for true portability. |

| • | IP filter files are now text-based like the DTFIPF system. Both are now compatible. [Old binary files can still be loaded.] |
| • | New option to test an IP address against the configured IP range filters. | |
| • | Right-clicking PFO headings now allows specific columns quickly to be shown or hidden. | |
| • | Now available in 64-bit, for hightened stability and ability to handle a greater number of simultaneous sessions. |
| • | PFOs now can be copied and pasted, including between program instances. |
| • | Local and remote addresses (and their ports) now can be copied to the clipboard via right-click. |

| • | Basic port ranges now can be created automatically via a new tool found in the PFO menu. | |
| • | Grossly improved handling for a large number of PFOs. Using the 64-bit build, forwarding was found functional with over 3500 concurrently started PFOs. |
| • | Multiple PFOs now can be selected, toggled, copied, and pasted at once. | |
| • | New option in Preferences to disable ghost-binding, or binding of interfaces that are unavailable. |
| • | Outbound-local (OL) binding now supports MAC-based binding. |
| • | Grossly improved resolving performance for local and remote addresses. |
| • | New Log Tail technology available through the View menu shows latest log activity, even when file-based logging is disabled. |
| • | Data logging for storing transferred data for each connection or session into its own file. Server and Client directions can be separate or combined. | |
| • | Unless configured otherwise, PFOs now retain statistics even after they are restarted (such as when interface goes down). |
| • | New parameters for automatic logging, #TCD and #TSD, log total-client-data and total-server-data (in bytes). Note that these must be specified to be utilised. |
| • | New PFO advanced option: TCP No-Nagle. |
