    I have ZA Pro Automatic Lock enabled and set to "lock when screensaver
    activates ". When returning system to normal use after waking screensaver,
    is ZA Pro supposed to Automatically disengage the lock?

    On my system after waking the screensaver, ZA Pro is Unlocked. I have no
    way of knowing if it actually did Lock while the screensaver was on.

    Hi Ace,

    If this is the still one of the 5x versions, then yes, locks with the Screen Saver and unlocks when Screen Saver is disengaged. Haven't installed the new v6 yet, so don't know.

    I have no way of knowing if it actually did Lock while the screensaver was on.
    Look at the logs for that period of time - there should be no activity.

    Regards - Charles

    ZA Pro Version 4.5.594.000

    I'm running version 4.5.594.000. Does your response apply to this version?

    As far as I remember it does.

    As I wrote, check the log. If you want, manually put ZAP on lock for a period of time, say 5 minutes, then go into the log, you should see no activity. Then look at the log after some period of time with the Screen Saver.

    Regards - Charles

    Hi Dennis,

    What's being referred to is blocking all internet access both ways.

    Thanks Charles

    That is what I thought, but never used ZA, use Kerio Personal. Kerio has a much less dramatic phrase ...
    "stop all traffic ". :) :( :p
