mcafee antivirus plus 16 wont update through pfsense firewall and squidguard

Jump to solution

t used to, before the latest version (16). I'm using pfsense with squid proxy (and squidguard)

antivirus plus 16.0 R 36

prior versions (<16) updated no problem. I have whitelisted the sites as per their documentation.

ports 80 and 443 are open through the proxy.

Can I assume that mcafee is trying to pull  its updates from another site or location?  

Please advise
