Re: PCWorks: ZoneAlarm 4.5... To send or not to send?

[Keith Thompson]

Looks like you can either be told or not, but I don't find a place to 
shut off the reply. There have been comments of this on other lists and 
some are starting to consider it something of spyware.  I have another 
firewall that I may try just to see if they are as information gathering 
as ZA.

I'm using ZA 4.5.5.38 (more or less).
There is a new feature to send some kind of usage profile to ZoneLabs -
which programs are asking for Internet access, I think.
A Dialog Box comes up periodically asking if I want to Send, Do Not
Send, or ** Do Not Alert Me When Sending This Information (!)
I *do not *want to be uninformed when ZA is sending *any such
information from my computer.
Is there a way to have Do Not Send the default ... or am I stuck with
being blissfully ignorant when unspecified information is being sent?
Thanks.
