Why am I receiving different prompts when quitting VyprVPN, rebooting or shutting down my Mac?

When you are connected to VyprVPN on your Mac, you will see various prompts in the VyprVPN app when you quit VyprVPN, reboot, or shut down your Mac.

If you are connected and try to quit the VyprVPN app you will receive the alert below:

"Quitting VyprVPN will terminate your VPN connection. Do you wish to continue?"

This alert is intended to remind you that your internet connection will no longer be encrypted. There is no way to disable it from popping up, and you will need to confirm that you wish to continue before the app will close.

If you are connected, and have the Kill Switch feature enabled at the system level and try to quit the app you will receive the alert below:

"If you quit, VyprVPN will disconnect and Kill Switch will continue to stop internet traffic.  Do you want to quit?"

This alert is intended to remind you that your internet connection will be disabled by the Kill Switch after the application quits. There is no way to disable it from popping up, and you will need to confirm that you wish to continue before the app will close.

If you are connected and have the Kill Switch feature enabled at the system level and have the "Stop all LAN traffic when Kill Switch is active" option selected while trying to quit the app you will receive the alert below:

"If you quit, VyprVPN will disconnect and Kill Switch will continue to stop internet and LAN traffic.  Do you want to quit?"

This alert is intended to remind you that your internet connection and all LAN access will be disabled by the Kill Switch after the application quits. There is no way to disable it from popping up, and you will need to confirm that you wish to continue before the app will close.

If you are connected and shut down or reboot your Mac you will receive the alert below:

"Are you sure you want to shut down your computer now?"

This alert is intended to give you 60 seconds to determine if you really wish to shut down or restart. This is also the time when you will need to go ahead and disconnect from VyprVPN.  If not disconnected by the end of the timer, you will receive one of the prompts listed above, and the Mac will not shut down or reboot.
