Zone Alarm and SAVRoam??

Jun 19, 2006 2 Replies

Just recently installed Verizon DSL and so got my copy of Zone Alarm running. I am paranoid!



Periodically I get an alert that a program called SAVRoam is trying to get into the internet (for DNS service I think). Best I can figure is SAVRoam is somehow associated with the Noton Corporate Symantec)antivirus that I use. Other than clicking OK everytime ZoneAlarm denies access, is there anything else I ought do?



I cannot find anywhere (registry incl) where SAVRoam starts so I cannot stop it from starting. Should I terminate it in Task Manager??



Can you tell I'm confused??


If you look on symantec's website you can a detailed description of how this software is enabled from the server side. From a brief glance it appears that you may have installed the software as a managed client instead of unmanaged.

John, thanks bunches. That seems to be it. I uninstalled the anti-virus and re-installed it non-managed and that "threat" seems to be over.
