[FW1] Weird http/web browsing not working

[T.Higgins@FW1-NOSPAMeu.hns.com]

CP 4.0 SP4 on NT 4.0 SP4

Got a weird problem yesterday - web browsing suddenly just stopped working:-

1. Checked logs but they didn't show any drop/reject traffic.
2. Checked policy - looks fine

Reinstalled (same) policy and all was okay again but I would like to understand what may have happened here. I guess the active policy screwed up somehow.


Any ideas ?
