Thanks all for your responses, alas i made the mistake myself.
A lesson learned, when you unplug the firewall from lan make sure you put it back in same port on switch it does help, makes a big difference when you have the port configured as a mirror.

thanks for your quick responses

Actually the HTTP dissector sees as its own traffic in the following ports:

#define TCP_PORT_HTTP			80
#define TCP_PORT_PROXY_HTTP		3128
#define TCP_PORT_PROXY_ADMIN_HTTP	3132
#define TCP_ALT_PORT_HTTP		8080
#define TCP_RADAN_HTTP			8088
#define TCP_PORT_HKP			11371
#define TCP_PORT_DAAP			3689

other than these, from the preferences you can actually change the
alternate port.
