412183 2005-12-12 20:42:00 Hi folks.
I have recently installed Kerio firewall and it is working fine except for one small problem. I play online chess (email) and one particular game (postcard chess) when I make a move and press the "preview" button a page should open up showing the move I have made and then I can press "send" to despatch it to the recipient. When using the XP firewall this worked without a hitch.

Now that I have Kerio, when I want to preview the move, the page opens but it says "Sorry, cant run it from here." Nothing else shows so I have to disable Kerio each time to be able to preview the move and send the game.

There must be a setting somewhere that I can alter to allow me to preview the move without having to disable Kerio each time. Anyone any ideas??

TIA
Smithie

412184 2005-12-12 21:26:00 Which version of Kerio? You could have a rule at the end of the list that silently denies any application not previously listed. You need to get back to the point where Kerio asks if a new app should be allowed. PaulD (232)

It is Kerio4 so I assume that is version 4. By changing "any other application" to "permit" still doesnt allow me to preview the move unfortunately.

412186 2005-12-12 23:23:00 Is this the postcard chess played from a web browser? Is Kerio stopping popups or limiting your browser app somehow (ports or protocol)? PaulD (232)
412187 2005-12-13 06:54:00 Thanks Paul for your response. You gave me the clue - I disabled "Web filtering"
and yep the postcard chess previews normally now.

You were a great help. (Have a great Xmas and a happy new year)

Cheers Smithie
