Windows 7 + Sophos firewall + hibernate causes double login

Hi

We use roaming profiles here with w7 x86 ent edition and sophos 9.5 + firewall. We also make extensive use of hibernate (to disk) to save power and I have noticed that if a client hibernates to disk, when resumed it does not let you login and just basically presents the same login dialogue again. The second attempt works.

I have not confirmed 100% its sophos firewall but it does seem to far to be cured by removing the firewall component and I suspect sophos firewall is blocking the initial login from working until it has reset/initialised.

We also are running in allow all traffic mode for now to try and eliminate the causes.

Any ideas if the firewall could be causing this?

    Sorry for the delay, I have just been testing hibernate on a pc without SCF and it has not replicated the double login issue yet which was happening before.

    I will rebuild the box with SCF and then get you some log entries from that.

    We use single location and the firewall is set to allow by default (not allow all traffic) and block hidden is on.

    I will hopefully get logs for you soon.

    Cheers
