VPNs can and do use port 443, it's a common tactic to "blend in" with https traffic. You could try to watch what IP address it's connecting to, and block that. But that can become a game of whack-a-mole because the provider probably has more than one IP address. Allan Dan Penoff via Mercedes

Probably. You just have to know what port they’re using, or just block everything outside of 80 and 443 and the usual email (25, 465 and 587) ports. A lot of VPNs use UDP 500. VPNs will often use different ports and IP addresses, so it’s really a game of whack a mole. If you know what VPN

I'd not be too upset by that temp idling with the AC on at 95F. You should be getting the high speed electric fan cycling at that temp though. Get proper coolant in it soon though -- water will be boiling in the head if the pressure isn't high enough. ___
