I am concerned about Shell.Explorer

[Edwin Knoppert]

Just found out that my newest compiled application using ATL lib running a control with progid: Shell.Explorer can access internet without concern!

I run Zone alarm and it doesn't show any message.
The process explorer i run shows Explorer.exe being busy.

This means the et-phone home stuff can pass my firewall safely!

Be happy this wasy you can not get problems with german Minister Schäuble.
He wants to get the rights to spy on all PC's ...
If he could not maybe he would hate you :-).
