<![CDATA[Adobe - metafile download failed]]>Hi All,

I'm using pfsense as a router with squid3 (transparent mode) and antivirus packages installed, everything is fine except the installers from Adobe error out with "metafile download failed".

The antivirus widget isn't showing it having blocked anything and so I'm not sure whether the problem lies with squid or ClamAV.

Could anyone give me a suggestion as what to try first?

I've now added .adobe.com/ to the whitelist and it seems to be working fine.

Any ideas why this is happening in the first place? Detect broken executables is turned off.
