Another FEAR question...

[BowlofRice]

I figured it was phoning home, which is why it reminded me of Steam. However the window's firewall had never prompted me to unblock it, so I assumed it was blocked. That assumption proved wrong, as it was on the "exceptions" list.

Though after reblocking it, it still prompts me to update. I dunno if it's to late to stop now that it's already checked once...

Edit: It would seem that unchecking the box does not tell windows firewall to stop allowing that program from accessing the internet, in fact all those checkboxes seem to do is tell windows weather or not that box is checked or not. I guess those checkboxes are cosmetic or are there to give you the illution of internet security. However after deleating both FEAR.exe and fpudate.exe from the exceptions list it stopped prompting me to update. It also stoped all the intro movies from playing. 3 birds and one stone! Thank you for the assistance.
