Thanks Casey. It would seem that Sebastian and "Mr. Arnold" are here
"only" to discuss... they're far too busy to lend a helping hand, but
not too busy to take the time to write and tell others to help
themselves... they serve no purpose here.
I should go back and read posts from the past and see how many
"discussions" on Firewalls there really were. This was not a life or
death scenario here, just wanted to see if anyone knew of a way to block
outgoing traffic only. I dabble in something that's not really worth the
time discussing here, and was sending a lot of traffic out with no real
reason. I just wanted to stop it and investigate what might be causing
the traffic. I had forgotten all about it, but my newsreader protects my
posts and those that respond from auto deletion. I will write new rules
for the aforementioned. Don't bother "guys"... you are Bozo binned and
this group unsubscribed. Thanks again, Casey.

Al

My goodness more cat chatter, we all know you're lying about it. AlleyCat
you really are stupid. Your posts are protected? AlleyCat, take your silly
behind and walk on down the alley somewhere, before you get skinned alive. A
two year old could have made the rules with no problems with Sygate. You're
to stupid a dumb cat. This alley cat is not so smart and tuff -- walk on
down the alley -- walk on down the alley AlleyCat.

Tehn you have a very serious that cannot be resolved by simply using a
packet filter.

So you want to block all unwanted outgoing traffic, but not block wanted
traffic? This doesn't work.
