Problem with firewall

hi… so, i’m using AIS right now, got it from the quiz…
the problem is,the firewall kept blocking 1 of my application.

i already put the appl to the application rules, first time, it worked,
but then, if i closed the application, and open it again, the firewall blocked it again… so, i have to delete the application rule, and then put it again,… it kind of annoyed…lol…

right now, everytime i wanna open the application, i turn off the firewall for 10 minutes,.
am i wrong with the setting??

so, any solution?? thx…

btw, sorry for the bad english…

Hi rwllm: I only used AIS in Trial version a while back and not for very long,But have you tried to put the APP in question in the ‘Setting’ Exclusion list and see if that makes any difference?
I don’t know for sure I really can’t remember, However with OA and OP if I’m having issues with a particular APP it often helps to exclude them from protection.
Just a thought :wink:

hi schmidthouse , thx for the reply… so, i followed ur instruction, until now, i can run the application freely, thx to you…lol… hope it will stayed like this,…

anyway, is it dangerous for my PC if i put it in the exclude list??

again, thank u very much

You are welcome.
I really can’t respond as to whether it will be safe for your OS because obviously I am not familiar with the program you excluded…however I can say any APP I have excluded from my firewall protection is a program I know and trust…for example another security software program or an App that I am certain is not malicious or questionable.
The decision is really yours for you are the one running it and know it best.
If any other problems or concerns arise please let us know…we are here to help.
Hope all continues to work as it should. :wink:

@ the OP: do not post such things on Avast forums

you’re asking us here to help you solve a problem related to cracks and malware, i.e. flora.exe and load.exe.

Clean your computer, run legit stuff, and come back another day. ;D

etc…etc…

ps: I’d love to have a closer look at your AIS license :smiley: (the quiz really ? :smiley: )

edit: would have been interesting to also have a look at your firewall log, to see what sort of connections your “applications” were attempting to establish ;D

Mmmm…very interesting. Thanks Logos :-\

hi again… umm… FYI the application i mean is an online game… Wonderking Online…
i didn’t know if it was a malware or crack or something like that…sorry, im a bit newbie here…

anyway, here is the license and the log…

oh , almost forgot,
here is the screen shot of the folder, you can see, the flora.exe and the load.exe is right there…

so, does it mean its dangerous for my PC?

anyway, thx again…

Hi rwllm: If you would do a search(google)on both those .exe you will find much information regarding both of those.

your license seems faked to me, your name has been added with an editor and isn’t even inserted properly lol ;D

… and you’re saying that you downloaded cracks and you didn’t know it ? ::slight_smile:

OMG, hmmm… how can i explain it, umm, how about this, check avast facebook, look at the winner on december 11,2010… you can see my name number 37…

You’re right…

Going back on-topic… i strongly recommend to delete load.exe and flora.exe. That’s not good stuff…

he is one of a winner of avast december winter special contest…

the layout of the license posted here isn’t standard, but nevermind… + the res is weird.

maybe its because i compressed it…

anyway, thx a lot…
i will delete the file… sorry for the trouble…

Trouble? None for us, only trouble for you if you exclude nasty programs like that from any security program.

Congrats on the win, enjoy your AIS :slight_smile:
