Within the last few days, these files were updated: Zone.zat plus all
the files in the ZSetup folder. You might delete those files then
reenter the Zone for fresh copies.

Also, open Internet Properties, General tab, Settings button, View
Objects button. If HeartbeatCtrl, ZoneAxRcMgr Class, or ZoneIntro Class
is listed as Damaged, right-click, click Update to repair the ActiveX
component.

If a Windows Update changed the firewall or browser settings, you may
have to figure out exactly what is being blocked. Other software might
be blocking entry, such as another firewall. Since yours is the first
instance of this error message (this week), I doubt it's any common
problem with the Zone, McAfee, Windows or Nortons software. The Zone
does change ports for specific rooms, and change IP addresses. If your
cache is remembering old addresses, that could cause the error. Try
these browser settings:
