No issue here, just wanted to thank the Firewalla team. Their device helped block a TLS Heartbleed Attack against my computer and automatically added the IP to my block list. I was wondering, is there a reason it blocked in the general block list, and not grouped under “Active Protect Rules”?

  There is a general block list already and it is relatively stack; so certain things are dynamic, that's why it is outside.  In case you need to undo ...

  @charles, do you see this happen often? or just one time?  Firewalla can't really block LAN traffic (unless it is Gold, and devices are in segments), so it likely just warn you.  If this doesn't happen often, it is likely just a false positive.

  Do you have antivirus running on the PC?  If you don't, probably good to install one
