If you happen to host a web site on your machine, please be aware that upgrading to ZoneAlarm 5 can be troubling.
Zonealarm is a firewall that helps to protect a computer from the evil that exists on the Internet. I have been using it for at least 4 years with no issues.
Seems like the most recent update just wasn't quite ready for primetime. I have been involved in software releases that had similiar problems, that is never fun.
All traffic passes thru Zonealarm between my machine and the Internet. The bug (defect) is that Zonealarm was corrupting the information being sent from my web server to the Internet. Causing all sorts of weird things to happen.
Pretty frustrating at times over the weekend but very relieved to have finally solved it.
