I've used ZoneAlarm in the past. If I remember correctly, you have to select the program and check it for server. If you don't, it blocks inbound traffic. if it is already checked for server, do a right click and it should give you additional properties like blocking all other ports for the application. peter

I know you CAN get it to work, but how I do not know. I need the firewall. It is my home PC on a ADSL connection, permanently connected to the internet. So I use it for basicly everything I do on the internet. --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Protect your identity with Yahoo! Mail AddressGuard
