255168 2004-07-24 23:21:00 Hi there...evrytime I open a document in Adobe Reader 6 it tries to access the internet ( according to Zone Alarm 5 free). Does anyone know of a way to stop this? Even if i deny access an attempt is still made to dial out. wooda2 (4837)
255169 2004-07-24 23:24:00 have a look under edit, preferences, update - it may be looking for updates automatically over the internet - set it to manual to stop it trying to dial out

255171 2004-07-25 10:13:00 Yes, nothing to worry about. Just the Reader checking in with Mom, to see if there is anything new at home. Mine does it too but I sometimes allow it cos the software is updated from time to time. Winston001 (3612)
