I need to set the Firewall settings in my Draytek Router to block
access to (and from?) Messenger.
I've done a search here, and a Google search, but seem to find mixed
answers, many of which contradict each other...
Some list various Ports to block, but then Messenger appears to use
Port 80 which is needed for other things.
Some list IP Addresses, but the lists vary, and there appear to be new
addresses getting added regularly.
One post suggested blocking access to https://login.passport.com, but
I dont understand how to do that on my router without knowing an IP
address.
Any help would be much appreciated, especially if you can relate what
I need to do to the Draytek Firewall parameters.
TIA,
JohnK
