WP SP2 and ZoneAlarm

[Dan]

Eversince I installed SP2, I cannot go on the internet
unless I disable ZoneAlarm. I cannot find anything wrong
with ZoneAlarm's settings, so it must be something SP2
did. Can anyone shed some light and perhaps, have a
solution?

I've been told that the "new" firewall provided by SP2 is
better and therefore I should run it instead of
ZoneAlarm. Any comments on this?

Thanks a lot!

go to configuration panel then network and internet connections then
click network connections rightclick on the connection (p.e. lan) click
properties go to advanced uncheck the firewall
(SP2 standard installs the MS firewall - was not the case in SP1)

Thanks for both responses. Even after disabling XP
firewall and just running with ZA, I cannot connect to the
internet. I'm running ZA 5.1 . . . The only way I can
connect to internet is if I disable ZA . . .

I seem to recll there is a compatibility problem with ZoneAlarm 5 and XP?
