    Hi there,
    recently I’ve installed a plug (with blacklisted serial) that was sending out information about my IP, so apart from being useless it’d created problems in some files.
    Always I‘ve wondered if is any application that could protect me from this sort of intrusions.
    I heard about little snitch. Has it any utility dealing with VST’s or programs that need to be hosted ?
    Thanks

    Yeah, Little Snitch will inform you if a program / plug-in tries to connect to the Internet. You can then block it forever etc ..

    Thank-you Robot for the precise if slightly sarcastic answer!
