Firewall configuration

Hi,

I would like some assistance in creating a global rule that allows ftp, http and https.

I have configured a rule that allows http and https but for some reason, I can't browse any websites using internet explorer but when i add ieplorer.exe to the list of allowed applications, i am able to.

So my settings are as follows:

Protocol: stateful TCP

remote port: HTTPS

allow

same for HTTP and FTP

  • Hello zaqwsx1234,

    since IE8 an individual iexplore.exe process is started for each window/tab. Thus you'd have to add iexplore.exe under the Processes tab. Guess your endpoints are Windows 7, otherwise you wouldn't get a Launched hidden.  

    As long as you are using checksums a global Browse rule (note that you might need other ports in addition to 80 and 443 though) should not pose much of a risk.
