I think that is the case: It is disabled per default (as the package is simply not installed), neither Uru nor the current Offline KI contain the file "_socket.pyd" which is the one allowing easy network access. When you click on the package, it has a description saying what it does (I am not a native speaker, so suggestions for the formulation are welcome). Drizzle does not have the ability to show message boxes or similar, so that's all I can do. For people who installed an old version of the Offline KI (I think 3.4 and earlier), which used to have this file, and want to get rid of it, there is the "disabled" version, which guarantees that the file is gone after installation. I can even understand that Drizzle shows a warning if you have the file around, but did not install either version of the "Network Access" package, though of course I would have chosen a less suggestive wording. The patch I mentioned just removes the message for people who explicitly installed the "enabled" version of the Network Access package. But, as I said, that's not worth going through the trouble of releasing a new Drizzle version.
I prefer e-mails to "diafero arcor de" (after adding the at and the dot) over PMs.
