I have no idea what's going on. I had to reboot pfSense… :'(

Thank you, I read those messages, but I can't find a reason for what's happening. I disabled SNORT and the problem persists.
Maybe the culprit is pfBlocker? I haven't changed any rule by myself.
-
Reboot the FW with all pfblocker rules disabled and restart SNort when it comes back online.
Report back.
-
I've just done the operations you advised, but pfBlocker seems no more able to create any rule on the WAN interface (SNORT is disabled, BTW).
-
Uninstall pfblocker and reboot. Does it do it again?
-
I uninstalled pfBlocker and rebooted. The firewall works fine.
If I reinstall pfBlocker all the settings are there (so, the uninstall process doesn't delete any preferences nor any list) and pfBlocker - again - can't create any firewall rule.

Hmmm :(
