Poser does that but Vue never has on my system. I use Zone Alarm too. Interesting. Maybe it's trying to do an on-line registration? I think I registered on line, so said yes the first time that came up, and did my registration. But since then it has never prompted for permission again. So maybe until you either say yes and register, or tell it to always say no, you keep getting asked? jon
