Restart your computer in safe mode, uninstall zone alarm and switch back.

(If it doesnt work, use windows recovery and recover to a previous date)

Now when you login in normal mode, download a new copy of zonealarm from its website and install it.

Zone alarm is the best and user friendly.

Go with NORTON PERSONAL FIREWALL for better..

I think the person concerned did not ask for your advice on firewalls....

And that problem for me occurs even after installing the updated version. There is no way but to uninstall it from Safe Mode

Are you on LAN? Cause there is this thing with the latest ZoneAlarm and LANs.
