Thanks Mark, I don't know what XP messenger is all about; a lot of the
programmes that want to access the web, seem to want to use the same address
of 224... but I don't understand these addresses, so like I said, don't know
if to allow the contact or not. It's clear enough if say a downloaded
programmed is trying to make contact with it's website, such as Real Player
trying to contact Real Networks, but this 224 etc etc is meaningless to me!
Thanks - Andy

Andy in this case, the program trying to access the Net is XP's Windows
Messenger. If you're a user of this, then you need to set a rule in Sygate
allowing it.
SSDP is the protocol it uses.
Generally as a rule however, if you're ever unsure about an application say
'No'. If you later find out something isn't working properly, you can go
back into Sygate's Rules and make changes. HTH.

Subject: [access-uk] Allowing files to access the internet
I never know if it's ok to let messages from Sygate regarding files on my
system trying to access the internet, to go ahead or not!
Every time I boot up, the following message comes up:
Messenger [msmsgs.exe] is trying to connect to [192.168...] using remote
port 1900 [ssdp: simple service discovery protocol]
I've said both yes and no to this, but I don't know what it's about, or
whether to allow it or not!
Anybody got any guide-lines on outgoing connections; I always say no to
incoming requests. - Andy
