I was wondering there was a quick way to block QUIC with my firewalla gold instead of blocking UDP Ports manually.

  Block port 443 and UDP?

  Any reason you want to block this protocol? it may cause issues if applications relies on it to operate

  Long-story short I noticed strange things happening with my PC and phone and after a lengthy investigation I noticed my Mrs's laptop and phone using UDP protocols at that same time, anyway I hired a network pro to come and look at it and he laughed saying my Mrs was using software of sorts that uses the QUIC protocol. I couldn't stop it with the firewall by blocking IPs or domains, he ended up using the firewalla and blocking ports 443 and 80 as UDP and it stopped. I was wondering if there was another easier way to stop it.

  I don't know if I explained that right, the Mrs was using a spy software of sorts and the only way I could block it was by blocking those ports. It's not a big issue just was wondering of there was an easier way to block it
