Description brant 2002-10-31 22:26:00 UTC 
I run the Zone Alarm firewall and whenever I do anything involving database
access, OpenOffice freezes.  It does respond when I shut down the computer, but
not if I hit End Task in the task manager.  If Zone Alarm is not running, the
freeze does not occur.
Comment 1 brant 2002-11-04 04:51:27 UTC 
I just exited Zone Alarm and database access worked as expected.  I
then exited Open Office, restarted Zone Alarm, and open Open Office. 
Database Access worked.  It seems that it is the first connection to
the database system that is affected even though I tell the Firewall
to let the connection through.
Why is there a connection trying to take place anyway?  There are no
foreign databases.

Changing to correct subcomponent.
Comment 3 brant 2002-11-24 07:01:37 UTC 
This seems to be working now that I have upgraded to build 643c.  I
believe a database access change was made.

this is great to hear, though I am not aware of any concrete change
for this bug (neither in database access nor anywhere else).

As mentioned on the qa dev list on March 5th I will close all resolved
<wontfix/duplicate/worksforme/invalid> issues. Please see this posting for
details. First step in IssueZilla is unfortunately to set them to verified.
