Zone Alarm permissions every update
When Steam updates (very often), Zone Alarm asks me for permissions every time. I want that to not happen but not recuding the security level. Something like "allow all programs on this folder to pass through Zone Alarm".

Any solution?

Steam should only update very often if you are running Steam Beta.. otherwise something unusual is going on.

Zone Alarm asks you permission about a program again after the program changes for your own protection. Some types of computer infections can "change a program" without your permission, possibly including Steam. Therefore an alert to let you know an already "trusted" program has been changed and thus needs new access to the internet gives you a heads up when maybe something has been changed without your permission.

For a Zone Alarm specific issue like this, however, asking on the forums Zone Alarm has (if they even have any) is probably a more appropriate place to put this question rather than in the "Steam Discussions" forum. Your question actually really isn't about Steam but rather about the fuctionality of a specific firewall program.
