Re: FIX for ZoneAlarm & KB951748 issue released


No, sorry.  It's been a very long week...


Then again, you did post in a thread about ZoneAlarm and KB951748 instead of

beginning your own thread.


What's your Windows version (e.g., WinXP SP3) and IE version, Phyllis?  What

other updates did you install this week besides KB951748?
