Filter Forge - Cannot connect for updates or downloading filters

ardlak Posts: 2	Using version 6.0, freshly reset router with all firewalls disabled. Filterforge.net returns 403 as it should. Direct connection is selected in settings, no proxy is being used. This seems to be reported every now and again but is never given a clear solution.
