System: Bering-uClibc 2.4.2, uClibc 0.9.20 Rev 1, linux 2.4.32, and
shorewall 3.0.7

This is a very basic (almost default) Bering setup. This is the first time
I've tried to modify the Rules file since I set up the firewall 3-4 years
ago. I wish to inhibit (REJECT or DROP) outgoing connections to
www.myspace.com from one computer (a windows PC) on the loc zone. I've tried
several variations of the rules shown below. Neither the DROP nor the REJECT
actions appear to work (i.e., I am still able to connect an IE browser to
the myspace web site). I determined which IP addresses to use in these rules
via ping www.myspace.com. It appears they use an IP hopping scheme amongst a
limited set of IPs that change rather frequently. I've tried both www and
http in the protocol column. I've also tried adding these rules to the
ESTABLISHED section in addition to the NEW section. Nothing seems to work.

Following the recommended guidelines for requesting assistance, I've
attached a gzipped Shorewall dump created after successfully connecting to
the undesired web site while Shorewall was running with these rules in
place.

Offending entries in Rules file (NEW Section):

#      Disallow outgoing connection requests to myspace.com
DROP    loc:192.168.1.3 net:63.135.80.45        tcp     www     -       -
DROP    loc:192.168.1.3 net:63.135.80.46        tcp     www     -       -
DROP    loc:192.168.1.3 net:63.135.80.47        tcp     www     -       -
DROP    loc:192.168.1.3 net:216.178.39.11       tcp     www     -       -
DROP    loc:192.168.1.3 net:216.178.39.12       tcp     www     -       -
DROP    loc:192.168.1.3 net:216.178.39.129      tcp     www     -       -
DROP    loc:192.168.1.3 net:64.86.183.91        tcp     www     -       -
DROP    loc:192.168.1.3 net:64.86.183.146       tcp     www     -       -

Any assistance provided will be greatly appreciated. Please let me know if
any additional information is required.
