Hi all
I have a VFP executable (MyExecutable.EXE) which has a form containing an OLEBrowser control. I want to temporarily block internet access from this form using the Windows (7) firewall. I have created a new Outbound Rule pointing to MyExecutable.EXE but the form still loads and displays a web page.
Any ideas?
Many thanks
Paul Newton
Paul,
How about setting the OLE control "Addressbar" property to be .F.
That way they won't be able to key in any web addresses.

Hi Dave
Thanks for your reply. The addessbar property is already .F. Basically this form is designed to show, by default a company home page. However if (a) there is no physical connection to the internet or (b) if an admin has blocked internet access from MyExecutable.EXE then we want to display the contents of a README.HTML which resides on the client machine instead. It is the second part that I am working on but I cannot seem to get the Windows Firewall to prevent access to the internet from within MyExecutable.EXE

I think you have a misunderstanding. The VFP MyExecutable.EXE is not loading a web page. The MyExecutable is using OLE/COM interprocess communications to communicate with a *different* EXE -- the web browser -- and this is what it accessing the internet. The MyExecutable is just providing the UI window through which you see the browser control.

-----Original Message----- From: ProFox profox-bounces@leafe.com On Behalf Of Paul Newton Sent: 12 March 2018 09:56 To: profox@leafe.com Subject: How to block internet access from within a VFP executable
Hi all
I have a VFP executable (MyExecutable.EXE) which has a form containing an OLEBrowser control. I want to temporarily block internet access from this form using the Windows (7) firewall. I have created a new Outbound Rule pointing to MyExecutable.EXE but the form still loads and displays a web page.
Any ideas?
Many thanks

Thanks Ted - Most helpful. So would there be any way for an admin to use Windows Firewall to prevent the browser control from accessing the internet? That is really what I need to find out.

I think you have a misunderstanding. The VFP MyExecutable.EXE is not loading a web page. The MyExecutable is using OLE/COM interprocess communications to communicate with a *different* EXE -- the web browser -- and this is what it accessing the internet. The MyExecutable is just providing the UI window through which you see the browser control.

How about setting the OLE control "Addressbar" property to be .F.

If I understand correctly, you want to open a local home page if the local workstation has internet access blocked. It's not clear to me why the admin is blocking this EXE, or if users are blocked from using the internet (an excellent idea, but perhaps a decade or two too late!)
I'd set the browser to navigate2 the company home page, and if you get an error, navigate2 the local HTML page.
Or am I misunderstanding what you are asking?

Strange that you are not seeing my messages. Anyway one of our testers _thought_ that blocking MyExecutable.EXE in Windows Firewall would/should prevent the browser form from displaying an internet web page. On the basis of your previous reply and explanation regarding OLE/COM interprocess communications I can now explain to him that that is simply not the case. And that _should_ be the end of the matter.
Many thanks for your help
Paul
