Ok, including the file in the attachment. It contains everything except ESET SysInspector journal - when I tried to create logs with SysInspector it would cause log collector to wait indefinitely. eis_logs.zip

I've already done this. I connect to the internet only with ethernet cable, so I don't think it's applicable here. Wifi is disabled most of the time. Every network adapter has Default firewall profile set to "Inherit default global profile" and Prefer network profile set to "Yes". The problem is, the rule seems to be working but only partially - sometimes I get a notification from ESET that network activity was blocked according to my rule, but I don't receive it when chatting, etc. It unfortunately doesn't work on the default profile either.

Hi! For a few days I've been trying to setup ESET Firewall to block Steam from accessing the internet on my computer (on a certain firewall profile called Steam_block.) I've created a rule to block all communications (inbound and outbound, all protocols) for local applications steam.exe and steamwebhelper.exe. It partially works, because when applied, I can't browse store/community/workshop, but my friend list still works and I can send and receive chat messages. I am sure those two processes are responsible for chat messages also, because when I send/receive message windows network monitor shows steam.exe is sending/receiving data, even though it shouldn't. I've tested another firewall application, and it is sufficient to block steam.exe there - steam immediately shows it's disconnected from the internet and friend list/chat functionality stops working. Am I doing something wrong? In attachements I included screenshots of how the firewall rule is set. Thanks in advance for any help.
