You could run an Intrusion Detection System in conjunction with ZA to better
protect the machine.

Snort/IDS is free software that can be installed on the machine. I don't
know if it will run on the Win 9x OS... check it out.

You could also install BalckIce\IDS on the machine and run it in conjunction
with ZA You could turn off BlackIce's Application and Communication controls
on the 3.5 version and tell the BalckIce firewall to ACCEPT, not
ACCEPT/TRUST or TRUST, all IP(s) on TCP and UDP ports. By doing the ACCEPT
only, you enable BlackIce's IDS system, which will inspect the data in the
network traffic for attack patterns.

You can also get an older version of BlackIce such as version 2.9 and below,
which doesn't have Application and Communication control features and put it
on the machine with ZA.

I hope this helps
