Explorer wants to connect to internet

C

Coyote

Using XP Pro and Zone Alarm Pro. Just installed all latest Windows
patches and now whenever I try to open my browser Zone Alarm asks if
Windows Explorer can access the internet through other program. There
shouldn't be any reason why Explorer should doing this. If I click on
'No' then I can't access the net - I have to shut down Zone Alarm. Any
ideas?

I wish my memory was better... Just recently I read a KB article that said
WE used IE and that to fix a particular problem with WE you need to repair
IE. Does that make any sense? Not sure it's any help as I can't remember
which KB article it was in.
