Locked Zone

A Zone is locked if:

You have blocked all incoming and outgoing access for computers in the Zone.
Idle lock is enabled and you have not moved the mouse/pointing device or used the keyboard for more than 30 minutes (or another time, if you changed the default).

Note: To enable Idle lock, you must be using the Custom security level for the Zone.

A locked Zone does not allow any communication in or out – unless the program attempting communication has a program policy with the "Bypass locked zone" option enabled.

Any use of the keyboard or mouse/pointing device immediately unlocks a locked Zone.

When one or both Zones are locked, the iolo Personal Firewall icon is yellow .
