PAHUD wanting to connect to the internet
I contacted the makers and remarked that I thought that PAHUD constantly connecting to the internet was unnecessary and represented a security risk. They replied: "I am sorry you are uncomfortable with that; however, there is no security risk involved. We have thousands of customers who have never had any problems with this." Is this correct? Am I the only one who feels that software should only connect to the net when it is necessary for its functionality?

It's necessary for updates I believe?

I think you can just tell your firewall to not allow it access to the internet. [/ QUOTE ] then the Pahud won't work. [ QUOTE ] It's why I won't buy PT/PAHUD.

[/ QUOTE ] People with half a brain will know what's the secret solution. It's called "crack". And yes it's illegal to post such a link on this forum (well I haven't ever posted but if they ban using "torrents" then I doubt the mods would tolerate this).

If windows firewall won't do this, get black ice.
