Re: Zone Alarm Start-up
Just a quick question.....everytime i start up my pc My Zone Alarm program pops up with a New Network has been detected on start-up....Is there anyway to stop this from popping up and also why would it continue to do this on every boot-up of my pc???
If your computer is directly connected to the Internet connection (i.e. no router) and you have a dynamic IP address, it is possible that a new IP address is causing ZoneAlarm to think it is on a new network. Since I run a router
AND I use static IP address on my router, I don't have anything to "test" this with...just tossing out an idea. I believe if ZoneAlarm detects a change in the first three parts of the IP address, you get this message. If the last set of numbers in the IP address does not change, I don't believe you will get this message.
