I think I can confirm this bug. I had an attacker try an ssh dictionary
attack, so I blocked ssh traffic from his network. Iptables confirms
that the subnet has been blocked and netstat and ps confirm that there
are no connections from that address. To be extra sure, I attached a
clean computer to the hub my workstation was on and ran wireshark for
several hours, with not one single packet traveling between my
workstation and the offending subnet.

Nevertheless, the firestarter GUI still shows that as an active
connection. I have restarted both networking and firestarter to no
avail. The only thing I have not done is reboot the computer.

Anyone know where the firestarter GUI gets its active connections from?
