So today I had the pleasure of spending a few hours trying to fix the Internet on one of our computers. I was thinking that it was something to do with my recent decision to switch from Nortons Anti-Virus to AVG. However, it turns out that Microsoft released a patch for Windows XP a few days ago, which was somehow causing Zone Alarm to block all attempts at connecting to the Internet. Thought I would share my troubles with you all, as I'm sure a lot of people are experiencing this problem.
Current Solutions:
*Set your Zone Alarm Internet firewall to Medium, as opposed to High.
*Update to newest version of Zone Alarm
*Uninstall the latest Microsoft patch.
