KB951746

Downloaded to 2 computers running ZA PRO. One is running great, no problems.
The other one, will not let me connect with the internet. Both computers are
running separately on same gateway. Any suggestion, besides removing
KB951748. Done this twice, no problems afterward.

Want to consider other, more highly-rated firewalls?

PerhapsZA "Internet Zone" on this PC was already set to Medium so it works
regardless of the patch.

Someone says ZA has released version 7.0.483.000

problems are now fixed with security update & ZA in ZoneAlarms latest
update... all releases covered, from basic to the full suite

Follow the link below, download new update version of ZA 70.483.000, and
then download the security update KB 951748 afterwards.
I have done all pc's on my home network... all back to normal....

Great post!
But with a secure wireless router as the gateway, why use a second software
firewall anyway?
I browse to port-attacking sites and they can't even see me on the net, let
alone show a vulnerable port.

Comments appreciated.
