5.1 Missing Information

[LarryW8ER]

Hi to all! I'm a new member and have never needed support as AntiBeacon was intuitive and always worked. How's that for a pat on the back? AntiBeacon 4.1 and early "Live Monitor" gave a list of telemetry attempts and the source. This drew attention to any offender so corrective action could take place.

5.1 gives you a graphic of a category of attempts and I'm not able to make much sense of what it is trying to say. I've actually seen a notification saying that "so-and-so telemetry and 0 blocked" ... and boy did that torque my screws!

If I can't see who is communicating with my system, this is not very useful! Any ideas?

I'm not sure on that. You could go on this page, scroll down and fill out the contact form to ask Team Spybot:

My apologies for the delay in replying.

Do you have Full Immunization enabled?

If it lists that 0 connection attempts have been made, then this means that Anti-Beacon is successfully blocking all the known telemetry in Anti-Beacons database.

Yes. As you can see in the screenshot that I attached, it is enabled. The mystery is what or who is attempting and sometimes succeeding at calling the "mothership" The earlier version displayed each attempt and said who it was so corrections could be made, if necessary. That seems to have changed in 5.1.

I'm concerned because of an occasional message that there were "x attempts, 0 blocks" which tells me nothing! I want to know who the culprits are and 5.1 doesn't say.
