[Bug 357388] [NEW] firestarter option "block traffic from reserved addresses on public interfaces" blocks access to some websites

[wandererr]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firestarter

problem: checking off preferences > advanced options > block traffic
from reserved addresses on public interfaces blocks some websites

to re-create

install firestarter
set policy in advanced to "block traffic from reserved addresses on
public interfaces"
browse to www.twitpic.com

it won't load

uncheck this option and browse again
it will load

this is true for other random sites, not sure why?
firestarter sometimes shows an event in the log, other times it does
not but still blocks the site

release of ubuntu:  8.10
