Hi all

For some reason mcafee is now blocking this connection when it was working fine.

I have gone into mcafee setting and given full access but its not working unless I turn firewall off.

Any suggestions please

Uninstall McAfee, use the Windows Firewall, and download AVG or Avast! for anti-virus (both are free).

Motion seconded...Norton and McAfee are well-known bad actors insofar as updates resetting settings and not really being disabled when 'disabled' and the sort (indeed I consider them malware, if not at least bloatware). The others guru mentions behave much more predictably and are just as reliable. :)

Thanks for the advice but may use that as a last resort. Just not sure why it would suddenly stop working
