i was opening Windows media player and ad-aware->updating it simultaneously
i closed WMP, then also closed ad-aware
immediately, sygate launched a dialog box as attached below
isn't it strange that ad-aware is being launched by WMP, and this was the first time i saw adaware trying to connect to www.lavasoftusa.com
any idea bout this problem?

Hi cl0ck

Do you have rules in place for both applications, or are you prompted each time?

Could just have been a glitch when running both at the same time. Have you run them independently since without any problem?

Regards,
