I'm running ZoneAlarm on my NT box, but I don't see how it would help me here. I'd want to allow this one Javascript applet (attached to Opera) to access the Internet, but not allow any other Javascript code to do so ... and ideally not allow other Javascript to execute at all. I don't think ZoneAlarm can tell the difference between Opera accessing the net for general web browser stuff and Opera accessing the net for nefarious purposes because of Javascript code ... can it?

Erm .. no, it will tell you when a app or subapp starts and give you the chance to refuse it access or not. It will also warn you if someone is trying to access your computer.

But the wizard on configuring it is [livejournal.com profile] garnet_rattler. Besides, you need to go friend him and [livejournal.com profile] ladilavinder now that they're on LJ.

Did someone up there in the discussion call me a "he" ?

I didn't know about "subapps" and ZoneAlarm, but maybe that's where the dialogs I used to get asking for permission for "protoclient" to access the net came from.

Uh, I don't think you got called, "he". I think I did, which makes more sense.
