so i have two machines - and I use Synergy client to share a mouse/keyboard with them.  Worked fine this morning.  Do Avast update on ONE machine, and it won't connect now.  When I disable Avast, the connection fires right up.  When I re-enable it, Avast kills the connection.

The layout is absolutely atrocious to try and find things to add to the firewall.  What on earth would cause this connection that once worked great to stop working now after your update?

rule in Firewall  -Public UDP/TCP block.  it's not public, it's private.  And the exception is ignored even when moved to the top of the list.

Here's an idea: 

first of all, why can I not get to the firewall logs from the firewall tab?  Secondly, why wouldn't you put in the ability to add an exception right from the firewall logs page???  I mean I can right mouse click and find the rule that cause the failure, and I can also right mouse click and get to the program.,... you guys have spent so much time coding in the "upsells" that you forgot about fundamental programming and ease of use.
