RE: Port 0
Thank you, JJoe. Apparently I had my loopback rule for a proxy setup properly in Kerio, but I had it setup for UDP out only. Proxomitron is trying to connect out through port 0 with TCP. That's why an alert from Kerio said, "Proxomitron' from your computer wants to connect to 127.0.0.1, port 0." So I changed my firewall rule to both UDP + TCP out like in the photo I attached to this post and I no longer get the alert. After changing the rule, my firewall now tells me that, "TCP Connection to (null) [127.0.0.1:0] was permitted by rule 'Loopback for Proxy (out)." As mentioned, I don't understand how the loopback rule works and as far as I can tell, Proxomitron is not trying to connect out to an IP address. I'll close out by noting that prior to me switching over to filtering SSL through Proxomitron, Proxomitron never requested outbound access to port 0, but that is a little off my radar. I just look for honest people and appreciate any advice they have on how to navigate in a world where privacy is becoming more and more of a concern. Thank you for helping me resolve this, JJoe. You are the best.
