Hi again
thnx for the mentioned document on SP2
but I`m talking aboust SP1 .
not decided to upgrade to SP2 yet ;)
and about choosing another FW .
that`s not a problem , moveing to another
Firewall like ZoneAlarm or anything esle...
it`s as easy as some clicks to run my setup.exe
but I should find out baout this behave if ICF.
some where in registery I located some keys mentioned
to ACL`s added to ICF , but changing/removeing them
changed nothing .
seems it`s not with registry or if it is , it`s
encoded/encrypted ...
regards

This is the same problem that happened to me on my
Microsoft MN-500 wireless
router. It was opening up ports left and right. I
had to manually delete the
ACL daily. I finally got sick of doing so, and
decided to purchace a Netgear
wireless router. Back to ICF... I really don't know
where the ICF ACL is
stored. If I were you, I would disable ICF, and
install ZoneLabs' ZoneAlarm.
It has more features than ICF, as has a better
security history than
Microsoft products. If you don't want to go with
ZoneAlarm, my second choice
would be Kerio Personal Firewall.

Subject: Where does ICF store it`s ACL ?
Hi list ,
I wonder where does microsoft ICF
( Intecnet Connection Firewall) store it`s ACL ?
I tried searching system files or registry , but
nothing revealed by my simple search.
why I`m asking this?
some MS prgrams like Windows-Messenger
automaticaly
add items to this list to garant their access.
on a firewalled network , messenger try many ports
to
find one working , and this magically cause a
local
DoS ,
when you try to open ICF configuration and
add/remove
firewall rules...
now , my ICF is flooded with messenger`s added
rules...
anyway to flush the rules ?
regards
