Firewall messages across accounts

[Guest]

Not sure if this is a Windows issue, or the fault of the application...
I am using ZoneAlarm as a firewall. I also have several accounts on my
computer and I switch between them frequently. I have set up ZA so that some
programs get automatic net access, but others don't. When I start a program
in one account and it requires confirmation for web access, later, when I
switch to another account, I see the same firewall messages asking me to
grant or deny access.

What's going on here?

That would be a ZoneAlarm question....

Niniel,

The best thing you can do is a program scan in the seperate accounts, if your
security settings allow it & then dent/grant access that way.

As you are using different accounts its like setting it for your specific
requirements everytime & I don't think there is anyway around it

Sounds like those settings are on a per account basis. Best asked in a Zone
Alarm forum.

Ok, thank you everybody for your replies.
I also think this is a ZA problem, I just wanted to ask just in case there
was something that could be done from the Window side.
