My Windows XP Home Edition (SP 3) was automatically updated on
Wednesday 9th
July. Since the update, I have been unable to connect to the
Internet while
my Firewall application, Zone Alarm free version has been
active.

As a result, I am forced to turn of both Windows Firewall and
my prefered
Zone Alarm Firewall in order to access to the Internet.

Is there a reason why this is occuring ? Can it be corrected ?
