Hello,
Whenever I go to one specific website I frequent often this message comes up. I have Internet Explorer on Automatic, why would this pop up?
Using on a wireless laptop hooked to a WRT54GS router.
Thanks! |

1 edit | Set it to "Allow always (recommended)" as the post shows. The same thing happens with 2005 as-well. |

Port 67 is not covered by the pre-configured rule for IE. I'd recommend to create a manual rule to allow outbound access to to port 67 (NIS will not allow to limit acces to the IP shown in the screenshot since it won't accept 255.255.255.255 as valid IP). "Allow always" will create a generic Permit rule to allow access to any IP on all ports, not sure if this is desired. |

I have come to the conclusion that it has something to do with the Macromedia Flash player since it only pops up IF I clean out the cache just before opening that page using CCCleaner [wiping out the settings.sol for Flash].
Just what I've noticed...

SP1 (all updates) with an ethernet connection (not wireless) beside a wired Linksys BEFSX41 router. I did get a prompt to update Flash to v8.0 for the first attempt so I allowed that ActiveX control. I tried a few more attempts even clearing caches and cookies. No go for me.

[Used to see an Orange County logo - now Ocean Pacific ].... And prompt no longer appears either using NIS 2005 or 2006...
Using XP-Pro SP2 all updates, Liksys router with wired connect...

Why would IE be sending BOOTP traffic? It thought DHCP/BOOTP traffic is only sent by svchost/services. Doesn't make sense. Maybe I'm missing something. |

Hopefully, they already looked at the issue.
