When I used Zone Alarm, a program tried to connect to the Internet, I click Deny and "Remeber this setting"...

At Zone Alarm Interface > Program Control > Programs > Find the program that you want to be set allowed > Click the Xs on the collumn Access - Internet > Click Allow.\n\nNote change the collumn Access Internet according to the program's need.\nAccess - Trusted: is giving access to your trusted networks list (customizeable in Firewall > Zones)\nAccess - Internet: is giving access to the Internet.\nServer - Trusted: is allowing the program if it can be a server (i.e listen to incoming network) for IPs and domains that is located in the Trusted Zones\nServer - Internet: is allowing the program if it can be a server for listening the Internet, some programs especially chat programs need this to be functional at all.

Sounds to me like you have Zone Alarm (a firewall) enabled on your pc. Sounds like one of their pop ups are what your getting. Look up what processes you have running, Google them to find pout what program uses them. \n\nIf anyone here needs good FREE firewall, Zone Alarm is great! \n\nhttp://download.zonelabs.com/bin/updates/znalm/za61737000AEN1023.html

I hear Zone Alarm is ok, but I rather just have McAfee firewall and virus protection.\n\nAt any rate, just follow the instruction when setting it up. When in doubt, go for the defaults. As you restart your computer, Zone Alarm's fire wall will be asking you if you want this program or that program to access the internett (for example Internet Explorer). Select what your sure of and the rest you can deny access (you can always change it later if you find out that an application needs to go online to get infomation)

go to your security settings in internet options and lower your security settings that may help.

Various programs running in the background can "wake up" your computer to update themselves over the internet, run scheduled tasks, or things of that nature.  That would be my guess!

It could be a 'wake on lan' event.  Depending on your computer, OS, and network adapter, search for that to find out how to switch it off.

you need more information, firewalls are as different as websites.\nIf you're talking about XP's built-in firewall, it shouldn't be blocking it unless you told it too. So go to control panel, firewall, 2nd tab, and IE should be checked.\n\nI use zone alarm, and that's much more complicated. Go to program control and it's one of the tabs that gives you a program list. You then have to make sure that IE has privelages to access the internet.\n\nIf it's norton internet security, uninstall it. You're better without it

yeah that happened to my step daughter the other day (on yahoo). It said someone else was in her name, we changed it that night and the very next day it did it again. We reinstalled it twice, and changed the pasword again. So far it hasn't occurred again. My zone alarm also said yahoo was doing some sort of suspicious behavior like spying or keylogging or something?????

Do you have ZoneAlarm?  That's most likely what it is if you're a home user.  See link below:

There's no way to tell. You didn't give enough information. Do you get an "Internet Connection" or a "Network Connection" (those are two different things).  Does your Internet Explorer show any webpages?  If not, then you don't have an internet connection.  If your Network Connections list just shows "Connected" that just means you're connected to a switch/hub or router, not the network.\n\nWhat's the program you're trying to access? Is the room in another building or location?\n\nNo offense, but it sounds like you're in over your head.  Contact your help desk, network administrators, or whomever handles your computers and tell them your problem.  They should be able to fix it.

You'll have to go into your internet options, security settings and lower your security level.\nTools, Internet Options, Security, Custom Level

open up internet explorer, got tools/internet options, connection and delete anything in teh box below this will remove all dialup settings. \nand then check lan settings and make sure there is a tick in the first box.

You may have a virus or spyware.  Download ZoneAlarm to look for spyware, but you need to scan your computer for viruses too.  That may cost you about $20.

Shut down Zonealarm. It thinks your software is a virus.\nShut it down, reload the needed software, then turn it back on. That should work but if not call Zonealarm support
