Zone Alarm doesn't like a router??

I have a D-link DI-604 router with firewall and I was using ZA for extra
protection. After leaving the computer online for a couple of hours
un-touched, I lose my connection (internet explorer won't access any pages
and Email won't work). I then have to exit Zone Alarm and restart it.
Everything works fine after that. Is there something I can do to fix this?
I also have trouble sharing files across to my other computer unless I shut
down ZA. Any advice would be great.

Thanks... Sanman

Have you put your computer addresses in ZA's Trusted Zones? We have 3
machines (2 x XP & 1 x Win98) on our home network which has a firewall
in the SMC router, each machine also has ZA with itself and the other
two computers in Firewall > Zone . All machines can share files and
print to the printer attached to one of the XP machines.

If you have done this and still no you I would suggest un-installing ZA
and then re-installing.
