[pchelpers] Re: Zone Alarm

Hi Scott
Thanks for your input. I didn't know that reporting info about ports was 
important.  I'm getting a host of Zone Alarm pop-ups. To most of them I 
click the no button in the hope that if I did so I would be notified again 
if it was important. Is there no where on the WWW where one could look up 
these messages and what the implications of responding yes or no would be?
I'll try and make notes of messages in future (depends on the urgency of 
what I am doing on-screen at the time they make their appearances).

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
