NNTP blocked bei IPS after Update 7.508

Markus S.
Hi,

since 7.508 Update NNTP will be blocked by IPS.

I will get this IPS log, when trying to access support-forums.novell.com:

id="2101" severity="warn" sys="SecureNet" sub="ips" name="Intrusion protection alert" action="drop" reason="NNTP XHDR buffer overflow attempt" group="500" srcip="130.57.5.50" dstip="10.130.0.115" proto="6" srcport="119" dstport="1558" sid="12636" class="Attempted User Privilege Gain" priority="1" generator="3" msgid="0" 

Ho w can I change this behaviour?
Markus

    According to the Snort ID, you can turn that rule off if you aren't using "Microsoft Outlook Express 6 and earlier [or] Windows Mail for Vista" or if you have upgraded to later versions of the software or you have applied all patches.

    Cheers - Bob

    Hi,

    O.K. as this patch comes with Windows XP SP1, I would like to turn that IPS rule off.
    But where?
    In Network Security, Intrusion Prevention I am not able to find something like "NNTP XHDR buffer overflow attempt".
    Where is that rule hidden?
