1 edit | Re: Kerio Personall Firewall v2.1.5 & KB951748? Kerio forum? I'm one of the minority that still uses KPF v2.1.5 (desktop and laptop) and yes when I installed the dreaded KB951748 it knocked out IE and Firefox for me. Looking at my logs it was using highports for DNS resolution. I had it specifically set to only use the range of 1024-5000. Made the change to allow highports (1024-65535) and it works fine (desktop only).
On the laptop I said forget it and uninstalled the patch and will wait to figure out what happens next. | |

I wonder if Explorer is calling out even though I use hosts and my old Netgear RT311 router (firmware from 2002 or so). I do use LAN file sharing with a Linux/Debian box (Samba). What's the rule called for this DNS resolution?
