Which domains does version 8 install and update from?

What domains does the Mac free version 8 of  sophos use to install and update? We use a registration system they restricts access to certain domains until a computer meets our security policy. Earlier this week I got a report that the free version would not install and complains that it cannot contact sophos.
 
We allow access to update sites and sophos.com is an allowed domain, I have looked to see if I could identify what domains the installer used and could see that sophosupd.com and sophosupd.net are now contacted, both of which I have authorised. But I still cannot install sophos so i think another domain may be used as well.
 
Can you please tell me which domains you are now using so I can authorise them.

    I have allowed access to the following domains (amongst others)

    akam.net

    akamai.net

    akamai.com

    akamaiedge.net

    akamaitech.net

    akamaitechnologies.com

    sophos.com

    sophosupd.com

    sophosupd.net

    But still am unable to install the free version of sophos. I get the error "The installer cannot connect to sophos, although your mac appears to be connected to the internet"

    The installer was working until last week, I noticed that the sophosupd domains being used and added those but i am clearly missing something. Any help would be much appreciated
