>>>DXLab applications do not automatically upgrade the “safe lists” of your firewall or your anti-malware applications. You must do that manually.

>>>There is no compelling reason to remove the older versions of DXLab applications from these “safe lists”. Some day you may decide to try an older version, and will be glad that it runs instead of silently terminating at the hands of an anti-malware app.

I'm embarrassed that I have to ask this question but...
I read the email questions in the list about checking the Firewall.

>>>Be sure your firewall and anti-malware apps are configured to consider Commander 12.1.5 to be safe.

?

I figured I'd better check the Firewall even though I don't seem to have any problems.
So....for safety in case I click on the wrong thing I made a Restore point and full backup.

First off I don't even have a listing for Commander 12.1.5 even though that is the version number is see in the title bar.

in the Firewall Allowed programs window I found; In order
name??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? Home/Work????? public
checked CI-V Commander??? ??? ????? ? ? X
checked CI-V Commander??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ???? X
checked CI-V commander 1139.exe??? X
checked CI-V Commander 1177??? ??? ??? X
unchecked Commander 1180??? ??? ??? ?? X
checked CI-V Commander 1202??? ??? ??? X
unchecked? DXKeeper 1306??? ??? ??? ??? ?? X
unchecked? DXKeeper 1309??? ??? ??? ??? ??? X

checked SpotSpy??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ?? X??????????
checked SpotSpy??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? X
checked SpotSpy??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ?? X

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
So my question is: does this need cleaning and should I delete the listings for the older version? of DXKeeper?
In the Listing for CI-V Commander, can both Private and Public be checked in the same line or is the way my listing is displayed correct?


This is uncharted waters for me and I'm a bit out of my depth here.

please and thank you
