Zone Alarm should block port 80 inbound by default - at least whenever
I've ever had it installed it has. I'd suggest you do a quick 'Shields
Up' check over at www.grc.com and see just what you are exposing to
the world.

Yes.

You should also (maybe) see my current IP address in your list as well
now as I've just browsed to the IP of your last post
http://80.44.171.230/ and I'm seeing an Under Construction page.

You're not being hacked, you've just not secured your machine
properly. I hope you've not allowed anonymous FTP users write access
to your machine.....
