Robert,

I use the free ZoneAlarms on my home network. I had to enter the namee and IP address of each PC and put them in the trusted zone to keep the network running. To do this:

1. Double click on the Zone Alarms icon in the task try.
2. Select firewall from the menu.
3. Select the Zones Tab and enter the name and IP address of each PC.

As you can see, have fixed IP addresses for each PC really helps here.

Thank you very much for the detailed instructions. I plan to try them tomorrow. But as of now (not turning the zone alarm firewall off), I don't see any place to click as you suggest in My Network Places. My computer is the one with Windows XP Home.
