    I am using LnS 2.06p4.

    I have noticed that when the alert rectangle displays detailed information about an application that is trying to connect to the Internet, that part of that information is cut-off from the bottom of the rectangle.

    Since there is no vertical scroll bar is there a way to increase the size of the rectangle so that all the information concerning an application completely displays?

    I tried stretching it to no avail.

    Thanks.

    I have also noticed this problem, which occurs with long path names. One solution would be to use an edit control to display paths.

    Thanks for the suggestion. I am trying Phantom's GUI and it does appear to be clear and concise with more info than the regular GUI but I do not see options for an application other than Authorize or Block.

    Is this normal?

    Thanks for the head's up, I now enabled it and it works). Much appreciated.

    Am I correct in assuming that Allow Parent Application will only appear if the application tries to launch another one?
