Microsoft update kills ZoneAlarm
« on: July 09, 2008, 02:36:27 AM »

PUNTERS who use the ZoneAlarm security package might not want to install MS update KB951748.

According to several news groups, the first thing you will notice after running the update is that your internet connection dies as KB951748 made changes to the networking files that Zonealarm doesn't like. It then decides to block everything just to be safe.

MSN left an explicit message after I tried to download ZoneAlarm.  No access! Installation denied.

Since this is old thread, I tried to un-pin it, but it didn't work for some reason.
Where did you go, anyway?
