Hi Eve,
Do you still have MacAfee installed? This sounds like the same thing that is
happening with Norton 2007 where it is not co-existing with ZA and other
programs. Might get rid of MacAfee, uninstall ZA and install it fresh.
Just two pennies for a late night.

Hi, folks --
The miserable McAfee Security Center that came with my last Dell is
finally running out. I can't wait to get rid of their firewall and
returning to ZoneAlarm. I used the free version for many years with no
problem. But now that it's back on the computer I'm having problems. I
can't get onto to some of the sites I need (I can get onto most, though).
I believe it may have to do with the ads the sites are running, but that's
a guess, and I don't know what to do to change it. I can't find any
controls for ad blocking or cookies on the free version. Putting the sites
into the trusted zone doesn't help. Ken has ZA on his computer, and I can
access the troublesome sites just fine there. Simply unloading ZA doesn't
help, and neither does turning the Internet setting to OFF. But when I
uninstall ZA completely everything is fine. I also tried turning off the
ad blocker in Firefox, but that didn't help either.
Examples of the sites that don't work:
www.washingtonpost.com (but www.nyt.com does work)
www.time.com
www.cqpolitics.com
Can anyone tell me what this is about? And how to fix it?
Running WinXP SP2 and free ZoneAlarm with Firefox. Same problem with IE,
too.
Many thanks --
-- Eve
