[Prophet in the wilderness]

So far, I have not had any problems with using WINDOWS XP SP 2 patch, with ZONELABS firewall.
Only problem I have is, in your connections icon in the task bar, it says " LIMITED or NO CONECTIVITY "
Take care, and I thank you for the INFO.
Hey ? did you check out Peter Jacksons new movie web sight ? he is making a new version of KING KONG , and he is trying to stay in the theme of the original version, but, only improving upon it.
You can actually go to the web sight of the movie ( KONGISKING.NET ) and watch them in the prosses of making the movie. Pete Jackson is even letting people ask questions, and give him some ideas about the movie.

That's exactly what I'm doing.I tried at first running both the XP fire wall and Zone alarm.Windows warned me against doing it but I tried it anyway I seem to remember it being a bit tedious and somewhat confusing.Also the Xp firewall tweaked some setings in IE and made it so alot of websites no longer worked connectivity was sketchy at best.I turned off the windows firewall and have been using Zone Alarm ever since.Also I've noticed that Mozilla Firefox seems to maintain a connection quite a bit more reliably than IE.
