I stopped using ZoneAlarm and switched to Tiny Personal Firewall for the reason you described above, plus other problems I was having. ZoneAlarm didn't get along with my DSL "dialer" software at all. No problems with Tiny whatsoever. And it's free and approved by www.grc.com

The one thing I can think of is to look for an option in ZA that mentions something about running as a service. Try toggling that option and see if it helps. Don't remember the exact details tho, as I don't use it anymore :D

If you have paid for ZoneAlarmPro, then you should be entitled to some technical support.

Is this a problem of ZoneAlarm only in PRO version? ... and with what OS?
I'm using ZA 2.1.44 with no probs till now (Win98,1st)

Run msconfig, uncheck true vector service, reboot.

yep that worked thxs fella!

no problem :)
