moon Posted February 9, 2004 Report Share Posted February 9, 2004 Do you have to 'allow' proggies through it ? You do with Outpost, which is a better firewall imo.Outpost Free Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought I'd give the Outpost a go. First attempt - 'error loading driver 1056'. Common prob, apparently.Second attempt - the driver is ok now - but here's a silly thing - I can't get it to open?? I want to see what it's got. :( Must be something I'm missing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to see what it's got. :( Must be something I'm missing?Right click on the "lighthouse" thingy icon in system tray Well there wasn't a 'lighthouse thingy'! But there was a '?' which was new.Clicked on that and it opened.Have printed the info for ZA anyway. May still go back to that. Was always happy with it. And you're right Powerless - none of that info given. Hope the registry bit won't be needed. :huh: :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
