Windows update / ZA conflict

[jmc41]

The latest patch from windows is a fix for DNS issues. Basically combined with Zone Alarm this kills your net access.

In my case, it took me an hour to get online this evening... The short term fix is to turn ZA security down to medium.

Thought it'd be useful to know ...

Something to do with this (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7496735.stm) mebbe?

That's the one, read about it and remember the update but didnt connect them until I was back online!

Just updated the server and I have this. I am running Commodo Firewall on the main machine and I do not have this issue, only my Zonealarm install has the problem

Think there is meant to be a new update for ZA that'll fix it, according to one of the IT bods posts at work anyway
