ZoneAlarm and the Profile button

[Paul C. Anagnostopoulos]

ZoneAlarm dumps the Profile button at the lower-left of each post. It thinks it's a pop-up ad or something. I tried configuring ZoneAlarm to allow pop-ups, but that doesn't help.

Does anyone know the solution?

So that's what happened to the Profile button. I just installed ZoneAlarm today, I have the same effect. Hmm. I'll see what I come up with.

Tada! I don't know if you're running ZoneAlarm Pro, but I am, and I just changed the settings under the Privacy Options for www.randi.org to enable everything; then right-click to open an additional Options menu; cleared all selections. Profile button is back.

Way to go, Pyrrho! I was on the right track, but I didn't realize that the Options button pertained to the selected site only. I thought I was making a global change, but it had no effect.

GUI user interfaces: Bah humbug!

What does the GUI user interface have to do with you being unable to operate Zone Alarm's user settings properly?
Pyrhho managed to overcome that nasty interface and figure out to go to the "Privacy Options" settings for this site. Whooh! and Happy Easter!
