Changes:

• After the popup windows is closed now the focus is put again on the initial application that has the focus before.
  
• When editing a rule with a plugin, some criteria were not saved properly.
  
• When an application was associated to a rule, modifying an attribute (log, allow/block) of the rule was also modifying its activation without looking to the application state..
  
• Color display issue when started in service mode.
  
• Fixed some attribute update displays in Internet Filtering page when the rule is updated by a plugin.
  
• Internet Filtering (Windows 2000/2003/XP/Vista only): crash at startup with some ethernet adapter names
