hi Douglas.
yes I have a router with a fire wall.
but before I got this router, I was on dial up and using look and stop, but 
still had no sound, on well it still did its job.
its a thing I just left it to do its owned thing, and left it on its 
default.
you can configure it, but that not my thing, not very technically minded.
all the best.
Barrie.

Barrie,

It appears that when a rule comes into action you have the option of having
a sound played, a message appearing on the screen, or nothing happening.
Only in exceptional circumstances would I want to have these messages on
the screen - that would be worse than the sound!  At the moment I have
turned both off - just trusting it to be doing its job.
But I am puzzled why with Sounds turned on your system is silent.
Apparently you can set a sound in an edit box, but if that is blank it uses 
a
Windows default sound.
The only thing I can think of is that you have a hardware firewall which
means that Look 'n Stop is not having to use its rule set.   I am on a dial 
up
connection and rely on whatever software firewall is installed.
