Tried that a few hours ago.
Hope it works for someone as it didn't fix mine.

Might read the entire thread from ZA as it was tried by a few and got the
same results as me -no go.

Re: KB951748/Zone Alarm - Loss of connectivity

Have you tried rebuilding the winsock from a Command Prompt with ZA
*completely* disabled and the native XP firewall enabled or, just
disconnect from the net while doing the following ?

Start > Run > type in

cmd
Click OK or press Enter

At the Command Prompt, type in the below and press Enter after *each*
command

netsh winsock reset
exit

Restart the system and see if connectivity is restored.
If no joy suggest you start a *free* support case with MS:

> For home users, no-charge support is available by calling 1-866-PCSAFETY in the United States and Canada or by contacting your local Microsoft subsidiary. For more information about how to contact your local Microsoft subsidiary for support issues with security updates, visit the Microsoft International Support Web site:

Or, not. The decision is entirely yours. As is the decision to install
Zone Alarm and continue using it when other free alternatives are
available that are not toxic to the OS. Here's one:

Re: KB951748/Zone Alarm - Loss of connectivity

Been there, done that.
Latest on the ZA forum is to not install KB951748 until they (ZA) come up
with a fix.
So far no fix is out.
Workaround is to move the Internet Zone Security from High to Medium.
It's a coin toss as to who you want to place your trust in at the moment -
MS or ZA.?

Don't gamble with Internet security issues! Stick with MSFT! Uninstall ZA
In its entirety! Use this tool:
http://zonealarm.donhoover.net/uninstall.html

Activate the WinXP f/w and use it in conjunction with SeconfigXP
http://seconfig.sytes.net/

Consider using a LUA for day-to-day use, harden your OS and don't expose
services to public networks.

You'll be glad you did.

LOL.

Relying on Microsoft for security is like employing a pedofile
to look after your children.

Re: Fix: KB951748/Zone Alarm - Loss of connectivity

Hi All,

I also tried this fix, and it didn't work for me either. Operating system is XP PRO.

Had to uninstall KB951748 to regain internet connectivity.

I believe that if you move the Zonealarm security from HIGH to MEDIUM it will also fix the problem

I've just installed the new relevant ZoneAlarm version 7.0.483.000,
and the outstanding MIcrosoft updates.
Everything seems to be working ok so far. Thanks to ZoneAlarm for
their swift action.
