OK, based on what everyone explained to me regarding the fact that The Bat! *needs* to call out in order lookup crl's, revocations and such, I looked through my settings and watched the output via packet sniffer over a few days.
I do not have any accounts with Allow S/mime checked. I DO have allow PGP So can someone continue my education on this and help me understand why the program need to lookup revocation's on certificates I likely am not using nor will need to check against? Maybe I get paranoid, having recently dumped Zone Alarm Pro because it too kept calling out and was NOT stoppable. I AM paranoid I guess. I really don't want programs using the outbound route unless I tell them to do so. Otherwise, I see outbound traffic going, at a time when I KNOW I personally didn't initiate any, and I am mentally forced to instantly start the packet-sniffer to see just what is leaving my computer. -- Thanks for the help ...
