Hi S.F.
You will probably receive a thousand answers to your query.
The latest version of Zone alarm does not like Yenc files and does not
pass them through the filter.
Reload the previous version and all should be fine again.
I received this advise from Agent help and several other NG users. It
proved to be correct and my system works fine now.
I wonder what will happen with my other programs when I download the
XP Service Pack 2. Anyone have any feedback?
