Dashboard widgets not connecting?

MacBook Unibody, MacOS 10.6.6, connecting via Airport. Internet connection works for Safari, Mail without any glitch.

Suddenly I noticed widgets previously working through Internet connection ( CurrencyConverter; The Weather Channel; Dictionary..) don't work anymore,

Any ideas?

Hello,


I reply to myself, with the help of one post I'm unable to find anymore speaking among many things of Little Snitch, I looked at Little Snitch configuration.


In Rules I noticed "Dashboard Client" , checked with a red button "Deny TCP connections to port 80".


I unchecked this item and presto all my widgets work now on..
