Issues, Workarounds & Localization

Hi,
Since the release of Rubicon I can no longer update eve online unless I completely exit from ZoneAlarm. It will not verify the install and confirm the patch it fails to communicate. I have tried changing the rights to the program in ZoneAlarm but as each patch comes through I can no longer update unless I exit completely.

It seems since Rubicon's release how Eve patches itself it no longer plays well with ZoneAlarm. It is doing something different either how it communicates new patches or modifies the existing program causing ZoneALarm to think it is compromised so it halts all internet activity.

Prior to Rubicon, new patch would come in, ZoneALarm would prompt that the program has changed and should I allow it internet access. I allow it through the firewall and eve patches. After Rubicon, client starts and tries to verify there is a patch, when the patch is available, the launcher times out telling me I do not have an internet connection. I have to exit ZoneAlarm, allow it to patch. Close the launcher and restart ZoneALarm, restart launcher and launcher runs fine.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
