    Hi,

    I have just found that LSASS is an application blocked by Outpost.

    Since this is an authentification process, it that normal? Why is Outpost concerned ? Maybe LSASS tried to access Internet and I blocked it ?

    Thanks

    Yinda

    LSASS does not need to access the net.
    It should be blocked, however it got there.
    Since you have Win2K, The only service that needs allowed is service.exe, and it should be allowed out to remote port 53(DNS) to your ISPs DNS servers. You may have to also allow DHCP out to your ISP. That's it.
    The rest just should be programs, email, updaters, like that.
