My main video editing computer is usually never hooked up to the internet when I use it. On top of that, it only has "Dial-up" for a connection. And I also have an old version of Zone Alarm, so I can see if things are being sent or received while connected. I've noticed it a couple of times in the past few months, but since it's hardly ever connected at the same time, I didn't put 2 and 2 together.
Vegas takes about 5 times longer to open, when I'm connected to the internet. (Only the 1st opening of Vegas after turning the computer on) I can't see anything being transferred thru Zone Alarm or the 2 computer Icons that show something is active during a connection. This makes absolutely no sense to me.
I remember somebody else complaining about "Peaks" taking forever and a day to build up. Maybe this is his problem.
I know some programs have the ability to bypass Zone Alarm, but I at least thought the 2 computer Icons would light up, if something is being sent or returned. (if not, does anybody know a free program that will show everything?)
By the way, I have Zone Alarm set up to NOT let anything connect, if possible. I do always see those Win32 'generic host' processes doing what they want, but they don't seem to be active during the Start up of Vegas. It's a huge difference between being connected and not. But since I don't see any activity, I don't know how a Dial Up connection can be the problem or why this is happening.
Can anybody shed any light on this?
