Thats what I run.. Works great for me!
Maybe you accidentally chose to block net access for the application..

zonealarm sucks. if you're that scared of someone hacking into your system, get a hardware-based firewall.

I may be the exception but I have found running Windows ME with no antivirus software and no firewall is great... every single antivirus software I have ever tried, including Norton, has caused MANY more problems than it has solved- it always found viruses that didnt effect my cpu's performance, and while trying to fix it somehow it screwed my cpu up over and over again... I recommend just running an OS with no antivirus and no firewall- that is unless you think everyone is out to get you... which we are...

Not true. The only good thing that zone alarm allows you to do is it shows you who is trying to connect/ping/query you. Most of the time its just people who are running ip scanners or if you have a trojan, it can block access to others, but if you have a good virus scanner (PC CILLIN) zone alarm isnt neccessary. |
