Nuther one that keeps doin that to me is McAfee! Thanks for the info on Zone Alarm altho I have more problems with the Pop Up windows after a patch. They are the ones asking if you want the EQclient to be authorized to access the network. Happens everytime the version of eqclient and eqgame.exe changes. Doesn't kick me out, just freezes up the client and I have to log out, then back into Windows then open the control panel for Zone Alarm and recheck it as authorized. Often times, I just deactivate Zone Alarm before starting the game. (Lazy man fix)
