I cant see the Search Button so not sure if its been covered.
I have Zone Alarm (FREE) & it is GREAT.
Default Settings... & I tick Yes or NO to Programs to go Online.
The problem is... Torrents.
I get 0->15kb on Torrents...
Turn Zone Alarm OFF. & I get 82kb
Any ideas?? The Program Controll is set to LOW & 4 Ticks in the Allow area...
Hope someone can help
When I used to run P2P and Zone Alarm free it was a case of having to open certain ports to get it working properly otherwise the client couldn't be accessed properly by other P2P users. Do you know if the torrent client uses specified ports to pass data through?
edit:
Dunno if this is up to date: http://btfaq.com/serve/cache/25.html
and http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/36/73686
have port information for torrent clients.
Looks like ports 6881-6889 need to be allowed for UDP and TCP as a starting place.
Also if you are running XP SP2 make sure the windows firewall is dealt with appropiately too
