[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 910728, member: 32260"] Anyway, it is easy to check if FirewallHardening is involved. [B]Just remove all entries from the Blocklist and restart the computer.[/B] Next, use the FirewallHardening Log to see if these svchost related blocks disappeared. FirewallHardening does not do anything else than adding/removing firewall rules. No rules, no blocking by FirewallHardening. The Log shows all blocked outbound connections visible to Windows Firewall, no matter if FirewallHardening blocks something or not. Edit. I think that some outbound connections can be blocked without Windows Firewall rules, for example by the router. Such events will be also visible in the Log, because the packets are not sent.
