I've been running ZA like a charm for several months at least (if not
a year). Recently I've been running into a problem, though.

After being up and running for several hours, ZA starts reporting
alert messages that it is blocking OUTGOING requests to my DNS server.

Obviously this shouldn't be happening. ZA shouldn't be blocking
outgoing activity like that, especially to my DNS or it would
completely hose my Internet connection - which is what it's doing.

When I re-boot things seem to be fine for a while, but the problem is
recurring.

Some things that might have an impact:

* ZA prompted me to install an upgrade recently (zapro26zl25a.exe).
Looks like I'm now on version 2.6.362

* I sometimes run some servers on my machine for a while, while I'm
doing development (Apache Tomcat, mySQL)

* I run Win98SE, with only 256MB memory, and tend to keep a lot of
apps open, so I get the "90% of resources in use" msg from time to
time. (I always close some apps when I get that though.)

Any ideas anyone?

TIA!
