I have Zone Alarm Pro installed on my Host Computer to use for internet connection sharing.

My problem is no matter what settings I change, it absolutely will not let my laptop access the internet. The only way I can fix that is to completely shut down Zone Alarm Pro.

Im sure its something simple, but NOTHING I do seems to work and Im getting vert frustrated.

Thanks so much.

Had same problem. This (from ZA help) worked for me.

Select Firewall|Main.

Click Advanced.

In the Internet Connection Sharing area, choose your security settings.

Select the 3rd option:

This computer is an ICS/NAT gateway Zone Labs security software
automatically detects the IP address of the ICS gateway and displays it
in the Local Address field.

You also can type the IP address into the Gateway address field. (I
DIDN'T)


Selecting Suppress alerts locally if forwarded to clients, will suppress
alerts forwarded from the gateway to clients to also be displayed on the
gateway.

Click OK.
