No phoning home
By Paul Hales: Friday 10 February 2006, 09:36
JIM BORCK of Infoworld having originally caught Zone Alarm 'phoning home', was kind enouh to send us the following work-around to stop the firewall connecting to four remote servers for whatever reason.
Jim's fix is better than the one we suggested previoulsy, as it only blocks Zone Alarm's connections to those servers which do only Zone Labs knows what.
To implement the fix, add the following to your Hosts file:
127.0.0.1 cm2.zonelabs.com
127.0.0.1 hs2.zonelabs.com
127.0.0.1 ls2.zonelabs.com
127.0.0.1 pa2.zonelabs.com
Thanks Jim. µ
