You are right on spot as for that, but unfortunately Zone Alarm (my
2nd firewall option) is also BLODA.  I can easily live without McAfee
(and I'm seriously decided to replace it by another non-BLODA product),
but really good, *non-leaky* firewalls aren't that easy to find.  I
will see what I can do.

Thanks to everyone for all the help provided.
