Updated Chrome blocked

[TOMxEU 0]

I use Chrome dev and it just updated and since then, it can not connect to the internet.

I tried to remove it from rules, thinking it has problem with updated MD5 signature.

I restarted PC a few times, I allowed all (TCP, UDP, IN, OUT, 0-65535), but nothing.

Chrome works just fine, when I shutdown the firewall, when I start it, it is dead in the watter again.

Logs shows nothing blocked, Chrome just keep loading forever or it reports, page not responding, kill it.

I have Win7 64-bit, no other realtime security, I use only firewall, HIPS and other features are disabled.

Hi TOMxEU

Try deleting any entries for Chrome in Programs and then start Chrome again.

Maybe something got mixed up.

Happened to me once (not with Chrome though), and this recreating of Program Rules for this specific program (and thereby Firewall rules also) made everything run smooth again.

I had this same problem. The only solution for me was to teach online Amor again.

Have you tried allowing both System and lsass.exe in Program Access?

Yes, I allowed everything, I removed Chrome, it recreated rules, but it still does not work. :/

It started to work by itself. I got BSOD 124 (Comodo leftovers related, I hate that Comodo junk) and after restart it worked.

I just hope, that it will last, but I think about doing a clean instal anyway, if BSOD continues. See you and thanks for help.

Those leftovers from the Dragon can drive most people raving mad, but glad to hear you have everything running ok now.

It might be a good idea though, to clean up any trace of that Dragon and then reinstall OA.

You never know what errors might be lurking just waiting to surprise you, when you install a new FW on a system that still have leftovers from a previous FW.

Well, it does not work again, that BSOD wa probably only good thing left from Comodo. :'(

I give it a try tomorrow, but it looks, that I will move back to Windows firewall or no firewall.

I tried all freeware 64-bit compatible firewalls and they all let me down, they just do not like me.

If you have had that many FW installed over time at your system, then it would properly be wise to do a clean installation of your OS.

Chances are that many of these FW have left behind something here and there - and cleaning up after this will end up taking much longer then just reinstalling the OS.
