Sunbelt Kerio & NOD32

Rudeboy · 20 Jan 2006 at 11:38

With the demise of Sygate Firewall, I thought I'd give the Kerio firewall a go that a few peeps on here have mentioned. However, I have the following problem. Everytime NOD32 (v2.5) tries to connect to the update server Kerio displays the allow/deny rule window. When I click allow, my system blue screens and dumps the core. Because of this it does not remember to allow the rule next time and instantly does the same on reboot when NOD32 tries to check for updates again.

Anyone else seen this?

Not looking good for Kerio at the moment

Have you tried setting it up as a rule before NOD32 tries to connect. Set Kerio to allow all activities of NOD32 and then see how that works.

You may also want to turn off DEP in System Properties, Advanced tab as this sometimes interferes with firewalls.

Couldn't see how to add an application to the rule set before it trys to access the net. Is this possible?

I can't check right at the moment as I don't have Kerio on my work machine but I have it on a test box at home and will try and check then.
