Default Re: th_flags: 2 message_info: SYN packet for established connection

Have you guys searched CHKP's SecureKnowledge database? There should be a technote that explains this is coming from SmartDefense and that you have to use dbedit to change the definition.

If memory serves, what's happening is MS Proxy is behaving in a way that doesn't jive with the connections table held for three way handshakes on the firewall. You can either do a packet capture and try to file a bug report with MS or you can use the SK article to disable the SmartDefense check. My preference is both. Disable SmartDefense and replace with a real IDS solution AND use proxy products(like BlueCoat) that don't mess up transmissions like MS does.

That's my two cents on this.
