ZoneAlarm - letting my computer clock contact the TimeServer

I need a bit of help here.

My computer clock is not keeping time accurately, so I'd like for it
to contact the Internet timeserver frequently.

ZoneAlarm 5.5 keeps the clock from accessing the timeserver. If I
deactivate ZA, the time gets reset properly. Or if I deactivate ZA and
turn on MS's firewall, the time still gets reset. So, it's just ZA
only.

How can I tell ZA to let the clock contact the timeserver?

Thanks for any help here. I tried to ask the question on the
Zonelabs website, but funny thing, I kept getting the "Cannot find
server" error.
