If there is built in to the fldigi development and intent to allow for
remoted operation EVENTUALLY, and the use of sockets, named pipes EVEN
IF THEY ARE ALL LOCAL TO YOUR MACHINE, will still show up as activity.
You can run wireshark for windows and determine if data is being sent
out your ethernet and/or 802.11 connection and TO WHOM the data is being
sent.
Everyone who seriously uses the internet in this day and age of CONSTANT
ATTACK (which is absolutely real), needs to know how to use wireshark.

I would tell ZA to ask me for permission when FLDIGI requests internet
access. Might help to understand the problem if you know exactly when
and under what conditions it is heppening.
I also use ZA and I allow only a few things complete unrestricted web
access. All others ask permission, and I can think about each request.

Perhaps someone can clue me in as to what's going on here...
I am running an F3K with pSDR 1.18.3 in WIN 7 (32 bit), vspMgr, and
VAC. In digital mode, when I start fldigi (3.12.5) I notice that my
internet connection shows activity, both Transmit and Receive. In
fact, this happens even when pSDR is not running and the F3K is
turned off.
Thinking that this might have something to do with my AV software,
Zone Alarm 9.1.008.000, I turned off ZA. The situation still obtains,
with the internet connection showing T/R activity only when fldigi is
running. The activity is continuous as long as fldigi is running.
I have re-booted the machine; nothing changes. I am a bit concerned
that I might have picked up a contaminated copy of fldigi; I
downloaded this copy directly from the fldigi web site.
I would appreciate comments from anyone who sees through this
behavior. Other than the internet activity, everything seems normal.
Thanks,
