This is really weird. The printer driver must be using DNS, but that still makes no sense.
We'll go and buy this printer and do some testing. What is the model? (just answer me directly off-list).

So, I reversed those DNS settings and I could print again. So, I then setup Clearcloud DNS on my Netgear router and again it blocked printing to my wireless printers. Reversed those DNS settings, and I could print again. What's going on?

We have talked with them. I think they are sourcing their malware lists from some other source. Fwiw, our malware lists are used by a lot of vendors. Bluecoat networks, Cisco Ironport, Nominum are all customers of our ThreatTrack malicious data feeds. Alex From: Andrew S.

My users keep managing to infect themselves with it, and we're having trouble stopping it. They don't run with admin rights, so there's no real damage done to their systems and we can clean it up in about two minutes. But the time adds up, and I'm tired of my technicians having to waste time on it. Our antimalware software is Microsoft's Forefront Client Security, and it's having a tough time catching this. Every time I get infected, I send the EXE to Microsoft and they update their definitions-but the EXE's used by the malware apparently change rapidly, and seem to constantly be a step ahead of FCS's definitions. I can think of a couple of options that I know would stop it, like blocking all EXE's at our web filter or using group policy to limit the running of EXE's-but this would also prevent users from doing things like installing safe plug-ins from websites, so it's not a first resort.
