Uncovering an Unusual Firewall Exception: “No Connection”
While exploring firewall settings recently, I stumbled upon a rather peculiar exception labeled “No Fucking Connection.” This discovery came about as I was trying to create a specific exemption for GOG Galaxy, hoping to improve my download speeds, which had stagnated at a mere 1 Mbps. To my surprise, adjusting the firewall did enhance the speed, but it left me with questions regarding that bizarre exception.
Curious by nature, I clicked on the “details” option, only to find that it lacked any meaningful description. I can’t recall creating this exception, nor can I determine which game or software might be associated with it.
Has anyone else run into this strange firewall entry? If so, I would love to gather insights on how to trace it back to the originating program. Your thoughts and suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
For reference, here’s a screenshot of the mysterious firewall exception: View Screenshot.
