Sygate Firewall-Is This Normal?

[kurse]

I think there is something you can do about it because why would sygate block it? unless you mean, there isnt a way to do anything about it. Wow, this isnt cool at all. May I mention that I have the "Hide Broadcast Traffic" checked off therefore it shows everything. Someone try this and tell me if they get this, otherwise something is wrong here

You might just be making a mountain out of a mole hill . I did notice its just spygate mentioned in the links I posted. Try highjakthis and if it comes back normal, say la vee .

whats a shiel up type program, i went to the link that you provided peat moss and seems my computer is in stealth mode from everything. I used countless scanners of all sorts and found mere cookies and some registry entries. Someone please help with the halt of this address trying to connect to my computer, there are even times where sygate blocks OUTGOing traffic. Please please please...

[DrBeerMan]

just check mark the "hide broadcast traffic" and you will see sygate is idle again, Broadcast traffic is bascially in my understanding is just your isp communicating w/ your modem to maintain your connection.

[peat moss]

With out trying to be funny kurse .But spygate sounds like it's doing it's job. You might want to disable the logging features . Or click the don't bother me option. I don't use spygate but has me interesed . You know I hate a post that goes unanswered tho. I'm an old ZA pro user so I 'm thinking your missing a settiiig mabye ? Your the type that reads every thing right ? Good luck tho , you'll figure it out If I could suggest a firewall its look "n" stop . But I don't like to argue with people about one 's choice .

Sheildsup is a site that tests your firewall . Its interesting in that you see were one stands in port securiy .

yeah its really good to know where you stand, but I still need to know about this and why know one else here seems to experience this problem. I can't find the cause and seems like nobody can either. I never saw this happening to my computer before, Ive been using sygate for years now and never once did I notice this becuase it never happened. Why is Sygate blocking it and why is it trying to connect constantly? Someone help please

[kurse]

Problem still exists, please help.
