I've had little snitch installed and running without issues for 2-3 years now. I reinstalled OSX from a time machine backup 2 weeks ago, and after booting up reimported a backup of the little snitch rule set. All has been well until 2 days ago when all web browsing started being blocked.
The current situation is that when I turn off the network filter I can browse the web, but as soon as I turn the filter back on, all web browsing is blocked. I tried restoring the rule set again from the known good backup, but it's still blocking.
There haven't been any changes to the networking or OS that I am aware of.

How should I troubleshoot the problem? Thanks
Mar 07, 2017 Little Snitch will warn you (ask permission) if a new process wants to connect to the internet. If the beacon can pass information through an browser process though, I expect most people have Little Snitch rules to allow their browser to send any traffic without warnings.

- Aug 29, 2016 yep. Little snitch here too. As always, if u need to monitor suspicious outbound connections, my advice always,is you have more problems than just blocking something. Otherwise, good for general troubleshooting. I used Little snitch in the past, but i know what happens on my machines always, so if something gets on there, i'll know about.
