this isn't news... every firewall on this planet has this problem with the
exception of zonealarm. It's not just personal firewalls.
Your corporate firewall doesn't care what app goes out port 25. Currently
their is no effective way to block apps going out a corporate firewall. The
only solution thus far is to install zonealarm or something similar on each
workstation.
It amuses me that this problem has been around since the advent of the
firewall, and people are just now starting to care.

But it does not. I will not take more than 2 weeks and you can read it in
the next announcement from steve that zonelab will not detect the method
used by the next leaktest.
