I just installed 1.4.3-5 (over 1.4.3-4) and discovered a new behavior
that I assume is by design. Formerly the default icon ran lyx.bat,
which in turn started lyx.exe. Now the icon runs lyx.exe, which
apparently writes a temporary file (something.tmp) that in turn runs
lyxc.exe.
Well, some of us run personal firewalls (ZoneAlarm in my case) on our
PCs. Every time I start LyX now, ZoneAlarm needs me to bless it,
because a temp file starting another program is (rightly) deemed
suspicious. Better still, I can tell ZoneAlarm to remember permissions
I grant (so that I don't get asked again), but since the temp file
changes each time, this won't work. Every time I start LyX, I need to
give ZA an 'OK' response. Not horrible (it's just one more click), but
a tad tedious.
