It seems the WebGuard bug (blocking some connections randomly) is not fully fixed.

I find the samething, I just enable the webguard I guess I have to Deactivate it again. I have this idea that somehow it stops the system from fully loading and causes random system errors like stoping a system scan on a file then when you go to that file the file scans fine.

Ah, I see why you have issues whereas I do not. Namely, I do not use WebGuard because I surf with Sandboxie.

It randomly blocks access to particular websites or interrupts yahoo! messenger files sending, by blocking the DNS server.
