Atrocities,
Nice wall paper. Oh and thanks for posting. Now I'll know what to expect when I install a Firewall.
Thanks

Guys we would NEVER have a program collect and trasmit data back to us or Malfador, that is flat illegal.

OK I'll buy that as my home system has no network or phone line. BUT... I had a mysterious ESOCK error that kept me from playing the demo, until I install the communications option (dial up networking) from my Window 98 CD.
I have about 15GB of other programs that ran just fine. So maybe SE4 could do a better job of program error trapping, notification, and allow the program to run without TCP/IP.

I love this game.
