Recently (2am today) I discovered that all of a sudden my firewall doesn't want to elt anything through it.... except my ability to ping.

Have any of you guys run into this? I am on broadband and need to have a firewall....

I have the Pro 2.6 version - you pay for something it should work like intended!

is it possible it engaged the internet lock and nothing is able to pass the lock

jbell · Nov 14, 2001

no thought of that... unlocked and ALL progz active to the net are given full permission right now... it started a few weeks ago when i would lose my connection (even though it is wireless braodband) and have to reboot comp. now it sits dead!!

can you ping domains or just IP addresses.

Did you change any settings before this problem occured?

I had this problem earlier in the year, but never figured out the cause. Tried uninstalling ZA, completely cleaning ZA, remove TCP/IP, reinstall TCP/IP, and on and on. Finally had to reinstall Win. I believe it was a corrupted protocol and not ZoneAlarm, though. Wish I could help, but that's all I have.

Sorry i cant help you with this, cause i only non-pro 2.6 version of it!
Mine runs fine! But i have 56k modem, not broadband like you...

You can try to remove all programs from Programs area and run it all over again, but that´s just an idea...

I run the freeware version and have had no trouble, but.....

I have had other apps act up and when all else fails (uninstalling, etc) BEFORE I reinstall Windows I uninstall and run Ontrack System Utilities (Mine is actually Fix It Utilities- older ver). The Registry Fixer app works great! I just delete everything it finds until there are no errors and then reboot. It doesn't always work, but it beats a reinstall. Bugs the he...ck outta me when I can't find out WHY though.
