XP/Zone alarm conflict solved.

There were 3 XP updates the other day. After they were downloaded, I couldn't get on the internet/download e-mails etc..
I found that the security settings on Zone Alarm had to be reduced to 'medium' in order to reach the web.
Today, Z.A. have issued an update to counteract what MS have issued. Security settings can now be 'high'.
Hope this helps.
