Some firewalls will also let you unblock access for specified, trusted
programs, and that is usually the best way to deal with this.

Hi,

Its not APH's fault.  Its the firewall settings I believe.

Subject: [bookport] Is There a Better Way?


Hi all.  I just downloaded and installed both the software and
firmware
updates for book port.  Here's why the subject is a question.  I use
Sygate
free personal firewall and enjoy the fact that in most cases I don't
have
problems with it running in the background protecting my computer. 
However,
in order to get the book port transfer software to recognize the
updated
firmware I had to disable Sygate in order for the firmware to be
downloaded
and installed thus compromising my computer.  Wouldn't the good folks
at APH
be able to resolve this disconcerting problem?  I tried alt-tabbing
after
launching the updated transfer software and this time Sygate would not
gain
focus using Window-eyes.  Once I disabled Sygate and heard its dire
warning,
the transfer software opened and spoke as it normally does and should
and I
could then download and install the firmware.  Surely APH could make
it
possible so that I don't have to disable Sygate every time I update
the
transfer software, can't they?
