I'm an avid user of Spybot, Ad-Aware, AVG Antivirus & Zone Alarm Pro. Considering I wiped my hard drive not even a week ago and I scan every file i download for viruses before I do anything with them would suggest that's not the issue here. I haven't configured LW to use any different port. It's set at 6346 not 25.

ET, perhaps you would like to explain this bug in Zone Alarm Pro?
There's no reason to indirectly insult peope, et.




Q: Zone Alarm: Shareaza is trying to send mail or ebay password

A:The warning is a known bug in Zone Alarm.

(SMTP) mail customarily uses port 25. In fact, particular services using particular port numbers is an arbitrary convention. Whenever a program tries to use port 25, ZA thinks it is trying to send mail.
Some p2p users set their programs (Shareaza, BearShare, whatever) to use port 25, to sneak around LAN firewalls on their end. Whenever Shareaza tries to communicate with these people (e.g. send a search hit), ZA freaks out.
