    Allow Single Application
    Kerio can be configured to apply each filter rule to only one application. Complete the following to limit to a single application:
    Difference in configuration
    1. Application - Choose 'Only selected below'
    Type path to application in drop down box below or click 'Browse' and locate the application you want to limit the rule to.

    Hi and Thanks will take a look, and thanks also TOG.
    The above has just happened about 4 times when i click on OE, should i be worried, or is this normal because you can see what the firewall is doing?
    Sorry for being a pain guys, just extremely cautious after the last goings on....LOL!
    Thanks

    thats just the firewall doing it's job, you can chose to "ignore" and tick "always" take this action and it will not keep popping up

    These are usually anti-spyware or security software applications that use either various forms of deception and/or unethical means or show a history of negligent false positives to goad the end user to make a purchase.

    In some cases these applications maybe downloaded with some form of unwanted software at which point the rogue application is offered to the customer as a way to remove the unwanted software.

    You should not have to grant permission for every website that you want to visit, just give your browser (Internet Explorer) permission to access the net as explained in post #54.
    :doh: Blue text on this forum usually signifies hyperlinks, so click on them!..:wall:
