I agree that ME is not an answer, but in this case it's not the problem
either. It's just another MS OS. Zone Alarm has had this problem reported
in this news group on 98, 98se, 2000, and XP. (Hell, I'VE seen it some (not
all) 98se, ME, and 2000, XP boxes. MS is not going to change their OSs to
be compatible with ZA, so, unless you're going to switch to, Unix, Linix,
BeOS, or a Mac, give up on ZA and try other free firewalls. (You'd have to
find another firewall anyway. ZA is only for Windoze.)
In short, ZA works on some computer and does not work on others.
