Prompt on Disconnect
If selected, BlueZone displays a message, "Are you sure you want to disconnect and close session?" when an attempt is made to disconnect a host session or when the BlueZone application is closed with an active host session.
Auto-Close Session on Disconnect

Disable Exit While Connected to Host
If selected, BlueZone does not allow the user to close down the BlueZone program while it is still connected to an active host session.
