I just loaded the page and haven't looked at it yet. So I thought I'd
ask this out of ignorance anyway (LOL).  Is this Outpost any better
than, say, ZoneAlarm - also freeware?  Does it pass the tests at
www.grc.com (such as the Shields Up! and more importantly the Leak
Test)?  I have to wonder what the preset rules are.. All I can think of
is that it allows TB to send and retrieve mail even if the Internet is
"Locked" (if Outpost has such a feature as ZA).
