Hello, all.  The past several days I have had a repeating problem with Bing.  
At times, Bing's pages will simply stop loading, and the www is no longer 
pingable.  I run a trace route to www.bing.com and my workstation cannot even 
find the pfSense gateway.  If I trace to Google (and other sites), it finds the 
gateway without issue and completes normally.  If I reboot pfSense, Bing's www 
is then pingable and traceable.

The problem occurs simultaneously on other workstations on the internal net.  
pfSense is 2.1.5/x86 on a VIA C7 platform with Realtek NICs.  Clients are Win 7 
and Server 2008R2.  My WAN IP is on a 71.201.x.x net, so it's not a miss 
configured subnet mask on the far end (which I've run across in the past).  Is 
it possible something from Bing could be altering my routing table?

Just a puzzle, if anyone likes puzzles...

tracert www.bing.com
Tracing route to any.edge.bing.com [204.79.197.200]
over a maximum of 30 hops:

  1     *        *        *     Request timed out.
  2     *        *        *     Request timed out.
  3     *        *        *     Request timed out.
  4     *        *        *     Request timed out.
<etc., fails>

Thanks for reading.
