With PFSense, Windows Vista blocks some internet sites (google…)
-
Dear Friends,
I have the fallowing problem, I do not know if anyone else has the same problem…????
I Am quite sure that window Vista is blocking some internet sites, if it discovers that we are using a non MS firewall.
If I connect a pc with windows XP, we have fill access to internet, and to al sites.
If I change to (connect a pc with ) windows vista , I have some sites blocked (like google, gmail, yahoo….).
The curious part, is that if I take the same PC (laptop) with windows vista installed, to a network of a friend of mine, were they have a MS firewall. I have full access to Internet.
So I think that the gays at MS, ) with windows vista, if the discover that we have a non MS firewall, they start blocking sites, like google, gmail, yahoo, and so on.
Is three a hack, or another why, to make PFSense act as if it were a MS firewall, so that windows vista will be unable to discover that we have a non-MS firewall.
Regards

Come back you're on the wrong way, no such "firewall version detection" on any operating system, you probably have a misconfigured dns on your vista box or on the fw, try using static settings.

I have already done that.
All is Automatic.
The Windows Firewall is turned OFF.
Sups. that you are right, so Why Windows XP gets the correct settings, and Vista Does Not?
