[RTC List] ***Warning*** Microsoft XP Update - Zone Alarm Conflict

[G W Bell]

Try the free Comodo firewall.  I've been using it for 8 months & like it very much.

Google it & read comments from others.

> Yesterday a Microsoft XP security patch was alerted to me and installed on my stand alone computer.  After that, neither Firefox nor IE was able to connect to any web pages through Suddenlink.  I tried various things (such as unplugging my modem and MS system recover which itself failed to complete) and was only able to overcome this problem after I uninstalled Zone Alarm's free firewall as suggested by Renaissance Computer.  Now things seem to be fine sans ZA's Firewall.
