No. It's just very safe :-) Seriously, yes it will balk at web sites that are overly intrusive but those are web sites I am not interested in anyhow. So what's the problem? All they can find out is my connection IP and maybe track that to find out my preferences. Only to discover that it's gone the next day because I turn off the modem at night and it is dynamic IP. It's similar when some spammer sends me an email with infested attachments -> kersplosh ... gone. If someone were interested in watching x-rated stuff on the computer they would decidedly not be happy in this here office. Because most likely it won't work. -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ "gmail" domain blocked because of excessive spam. Use another domain or send PM.

My LTspice III updater broke at one time, reinstall fixed it. Cheers

Hmm, how can that be installed separately? I always did a clean swipe and re-installed the whole LTSpice chebang, hoping that this would also fix the updater. But it never did. It might really be the firewall or something though, in my case. -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ "gmail" domain blocked because of excessive spam. Use another domain or send PM.

Zonealarm just indicates port 53, which is DNS and Http (80). Might want to check your DNS settings. Otherwise the Updated can't be installed seperately, a full install is needed. Cheers

Ah, thanks, a closed port may be the reason. Beats me why they don't let a little error message pop up. Instead, it just sits there and does nothing. -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ "gmail" domain blocked because of excessive spam. Use another domain or send PM.
