I'm using a DSL router with a built-in firewall, which required me to
uninstall zonealarm and I never reinstalled it.  I ran Steve Gibsons
tests and my machine came back fully stealthed without it, so I haven't
bothered.

Ohhhhh... sorry, I no longer use Zonealarm.

I guess I should ask this again though.

I stopped using Zonealarm about two years ago when I finally broke down
and bought a router for my home office.  The router has a "firewall" in
it and so I didn't see much sense (nor any pings any more).  Are you
guys using Zonealarm on computers inside a router / firewall, and if so
are you seeing pings from outside the hardware firewall getting through?

If running Win2000 or NT it is under c:\winnt directory
. Log control settings not preserved on upgrade from 2.6
When upgrading from ZoneAlarm 2.6 to ZoneAlarm 3.7, log control settings
are returned to defaults.  Latest version is 3.7.211  You may have
turned them off.  From main control panel click on Alerts and Logs then
Main Tab rather than log viewer Expand to full screen other wise you may
not  see advanced tab Click on advanced tab to see location path of logs
or if the log files have been turned off If you turn them on you may get
a quick 20 M taken up by these files.
