    Hi Gregg,

    I'm not sure how to do it in the WG, but with the Cisco Pix and ASA series,
    it would be commands such as the following::

    name 188.72.246.99 FakeVirusAlertSourceIP
    access-list aclout_in deny tcp host 188.72.246.99 any

    WatchGuard has a IP block list you can add the entire subnet too, I have
    a large list of IP ranges in the default block list.

    Additionally, if you're letting COM/EXE/REG/DLL, etc... files inbound
    via HTTP then you're not using the firewall properly - Block all files
    capable of malicious activity for HTTP - then enter exclusions for
    *.microsoft.com, *.adobe.com, etc... as needed for the genera HTTP PROXY
    rule - don't use a packet filter rule to block a single IP, use the
    BLOCK IP list function.

    Ace,

    I intentionally bypassed the WatchGuard in order to test if Trend Micro WFBS
    would stop it. For once, it did.

    more often than not.

    Its = Belonging to it. For example, "Look at the sky. Its color is blue."
    It's = It is. For example, "It's hot today."
    It's = It has. For example, "It's been nice talking to you."
    Its' = completely incorrect usage. Stop it!


    Peeve #2: Your vs. You're
    "Your" means belonging to you, as in, "It's your truck."
    "You're" means "You are." Example, you're probably about ready to throttle
    me for this peeve!

    I was wondering what that meant! LOL!

    As for the list, there are quite a bit to enter manually into a PIX. Maybe
    create a 'deny' group, and put them in, but I still have to get them in
    somehow and not spend two hours typing them in. :-)

    Thanks for the link, Gregg!

    For a WatchGuard, all one has to do is get the file into text that has only
    the IP addresses. I just open it in Excel and choose a semi-colon as the
    delimiter, which makes it into two columns. I delete the second column, save
    it, then use it to import into the WG in one big chunk.

    If you look at the list, you will see that the IP that Russ posted isn't
    there, but it can be added manually.

    I was checking into my Pix and how to do it. I can create a 'service group'
    and simply copy/paste a comma delimited file, as you stated. Thanks for the
    ideas!
