Tor crashes ZoneAlarm

There is the problem that even if one were to verify that ZoneAlarm was not connecting on startup with a sniffer such as ethereal, it does not rule out the possibility of this occuring at other times say at 12:00 am each day, or at the first of the month. It is really hard to rule this sort of thing out unless the application is open source.  I think people should at least be aware of that risk and know that if the results of such a test came back negative, it does nto necessarily mean there is no phoning home occuring with the Zone alarm application.
