The following steps will help the Administrator set up the Applications 
portion of the configuration. While the configuration file (CPD.SFR) is not 
intended to be transferrable, the Applications settings can be successfully 
copied from one system to another. The System settings cannot.

1. Select the Settings menu item, and the Applications option on the popup 

menu.

2. Do not select "Trust all applications" unless you are very sure this is what 

you want. When selected, all applications are freely allowed to 
communicate and malicious "trojans" may go unnoticed.

3. Close the Application Settings dialog box, choosing "OK".

4. Add applications you want to communicate to the "Trusted Applications" 

list by running the application. You will be prompted to allow the 
application. Choose ’Yes’.

5. Once you have run the applications you want to communicate, review the 

Trusted and Blocked Applications lists by choosing Applications/Settings 
again, as in Step (1).

6. Select the application and click either Add, Remove, or Allow.  Click the 

Trust all applications check box to allow all applications displayed in the 
list box.

7. Choose "OK" to close the dialog box.
