Re: Yahoo Mail + Zone Alarm Pro

Just came back from dinner- wife goes to check her Yahoo email and I'm in the process of telling her how to disable ZAP and she says- I don't have to do that, I'm already reading mail in my inbox. I honestly have no idea what's going on- I haven't done anything except download, install and run Belarc. Maybe Yahoo IT guys read BBRs?

Have to wait and see what happens. Thanks to all who responded.

As was mentioned above. I'd try lowering your privacy settings in ZAP. I've not had any issues checking Yahoo mail using ZAP. But I also only check my Yahoo account once every few months.

Also as was mentioned above. Disabling your software firewall for even a few minutes nowadays - if a NAT router isn't connected to your machine - can in fact lead to a very quick worm infection.

You mentioned SP2 being download onto your machine. This wouldn't have happened even if you had automatic updates on. Do to the fact that SP2 is still in testing. So someone must have manually installed the SP2. As far as I know you can only get a public available build here »www.microsoft.com/technet/prodte···iew.mspx

Are sure it wasn't the Service Pack 1 ( SP1 ) you saw installed?

Sorry for the delay- ran Belarc which showed download of SP2 (for XP) on 5/5/04. Just me, my wife and the cat here. Have hardware firewall and NAT (router) in front. Yahoo mail still working fine- have given up on ABC Online.

Go figure.
