I should explain, it was always obvious in ZA when a program attempted
inbound/outbound access (for example I had Morpheus access ONLY when I
wished it to), this is not true in TPF - just running quietly in the

As for Outpost; I quite like Outpost, but find it hard trying to find which
ports to block or leave open for certain programs, like Morpheus
