Raul. You probably don't want to block port 80, it is the port that
Internet Explorer uses to browse websites. I know Sygate shows it as
open, but that is because IE is tuned in on their
website.................Dingo

Hi Dingo, I do want to block port 80. Blocking web access is exactly what we
want to do with some machines.

Please help.

Thanks,

Well, if your working with Sygate Firewall, right click the icon in the
systems tray, choose Applications, find the app that is using port 80,
click on Advanced and uncheck 'Act as Server' if you run into problems
you can always go back and re-check it. Dingo
