Hi there I've just loaded up the demo of vv4. When you start the program it makes a background internet connection to stats.sonicfoundry.com

Can someone please tell me what is going on here? What information is the program sending and to whom?

TIA for the info.

Bill

It is checking for UPDATES to the program. It is a configuration under Options - Preferences. Just turn OFF "Use Net Notify to stay informed about Sonic Foundry products" and all will be well.

go to options/preferences and on the general tab uncheck "use Net notify to stay informed about Sonic Foundry Products"
