      I have found that several sites that when I download .dmg from have stopped working recently.  I am wondering if there is a difference in the protocol they are using that is causing the pf to block the transfer of .dmg files to a mac os x 10.4.10 in both firefox (current version) and Safari 3.0.3.

      Has anyone else seen this.  In particular one site is www.divx.com and another to my dismay is www.firefox.com.  Its when the request moves to the download.blah.com that the problem persists.  So, is there a connection from download.blah.com that I am blocking.  Why is this behaving different than downloading .msi on windows from these sites are fine. Anyway, I can't seem to isolate the traffic well enough (with enough meaning intact) ;P  at my pfsense box to figure out who, what, when and where things go wrong.  Currently, I have the default pf rules for LAN on this subnet.

      Thanks in advance for any information.
