If you have a router, check your router log for any unusual
communication activity and try to block at the router level. I think
that you can reinstall zonealarm and set it to the relearn mode, then
block this firewall zone when zonealarm asks. Is this a home computer
or a corporate lan? The IP and submask doesn't appear to be from a
homebased LAN.
