Guest Chipete Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 I, too, could not get on the net after the KB951748 update. I encourage Microsoft to do a search on the update so they could see how many hits there are already, and to take this update off of the critical list. T hankfully, I do not allow XP to automatically download and install updates. Otherwise, I might have not been able to find the source of the problem so quickly.

Guest George Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 Same here. The uodates caused ZoneAlarm to block internet access. I uninstalled the updates via Add/Remove programs, rebooted, and was boot on. MS needs to patch these updates to not destroy ZoneAlarm Pro. "Chipete" wrote: > I, too, could not get on the net after the KB951748 update.

Guest Hawkins Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 On one computer with Comodo Firewall KB951748 installed and internet connection was fine. On another computer with Zone Alarm free KB 951748 caused internet connection to be lost. As Zone Alarm is a very widely used firewall I think this board and Microsoft will have a very busy time over the next few days to come up with a fix. Richard Hawkins. ..

Guest Jerry Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 Same problem here. Had to do a System Restore and then install updates one-by-one to determine problem child. KB951748 stopped me from getting online. Major problem. Microsoft better fix it.

Guest SUKate Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 I too installed the updates and lost internet connectivity. I finally narrowed the problem down to the updates. I used system restore and installed each download individually. I found KB951748 to be the one causing my problem. I was able to reconnect as soon as I uninstalled it via add/remove programs. This should be looked into as I have never before had problems with my automatic updates. "Chipete" wrote: > I, too, could not get on the net after the KB951748 update.

Guest Epademic Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 After downloading and installing the three updates available as of 07/08/08 I found that I could no longer access the internet. My wireless connection was perfect, I even used the Microsoft Diagnostic Tool, and it said that there was an issue with my router or my ISP. I did System Restore, which fixed the problem, went onto Microsoft.com and did the 3 updates one at a time untill i discovered that Security Update for Windows XP (KB951748) was the issue. Microsoft, please fix this update. "Chipete" wrote: > I, too, could not get on the net after the KB951748 update.

Guest George Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 That's not a very nice attitude PA Bear. The problem is caused by the Windows Update not ZoneAlarm. The update seems to stuff up Zonealarm's High Security setting. It seem's that if you change the setting to medium, your internet works again. As Bob posted on the ZoneAlarm forum : "medium's action seems to be "allow unless you block" whereas High is the other way around". Your suggestion of "fix your ZA installation" is rather dull. MS needs to fix its KB951748 update.

Guest Cord Recken, Dodge City, KS Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 Yes, the Security Update for Windows XP KB951748 will have to be uninstalled if you have installed it already.

Guest PA Bear [MS MVP] Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 Uh-uh, third-party applications need to work with Windows, not the other way around. Sorry.

Guest ozbluenose Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 Perhaps if Microsoft designed its operating systems with better security in the first place then the poor sods who buy and use this operating system might not have to fork out more money to third party companies for software to plug its holes! Your high and mighty attitude, PA Bear, serves only to reinforce my perception that Microsoft is less genuinely interested in customer satisfaction than it is in ripping more money out of them and wasting their time trying to fix the damned thing up. Get a reality check - and some humanity, while you're at it. "PA Bear [MS MVP]" wrote: > Uh-uh, third-party applications need to work with Windows, not the other way > around.

Guest MSUser100 Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 Same problem here. I removed both KB951748 and KB951978 ! Zonealarm details are: TrueVector version:7.0.473.000 Driver version:7.0.473.00 I hope that a fix will come soon. "Chipete" wrote: > I, too, could not get on the net after the KB951748 update.

Guest ozbluenose Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 Here's a novel idea: How's about cooperating with all the third party Microsoft operating system fixers (that is, the many that provide solutions to the operating system's inadequacies) beforehand so that people like myself don't have to spend hours sorting out a problem after blindly trusting and automatically installing Microsoft's updates. Your flippant attitude forgets end-user choice from paying customers that choose to pay for third party fixing software to plug the operating system's holes. Simply shutting off my internet connection as you did with this update shows complete disregard not of Zonealarm, but of ME!!! I DON'T APPRECIATE IT. And I further don't appreciate your comment about fixing the Zonealarm installation when I am trying to find a solution from all manner of places. If I was your boss I would give you a good dressing down for your behaviour, but then perhaps your behaviour is indicative of Microsoft's organisational culture.

Unfortunately, you have no idea what you're talking about. A fully patched MSFT OS (NT) with the in-build f/w provides an impressively better security without employing *any* 3rd party software f/w apps. Mate, do yourself a favour and research this subject further (and please don't read/believe all the hype created by the makers of "Illusion Ware"). > Your high and mighty attitude, PA Bear, serves only to > reinforce my perception that Microsoft is less genuinely interested in > customer satisfaction than it is in ripping more money out of them and > wasting their time trying to fix the damned thing up. PA bear is right! It's up to the 3rd party software manufacturer to ensure that their product is coded correctly! The user is being ripped off by the sheer arrogance and (inexcusable) ignorance by the makers of 3rd party software. > Get a reality check - It is you who is out of touch! > and some humanity, while you're at it.

Guest Roger Overunder Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 Had the same problem - KB951748 stopped internet access. Uninstalling KB951748 using Win XPs add/remove programs worked for me. I'm not much interested in lowering my firewall security settings for an update that apparently wasn't given a "real world" trial. The glitch in this update does needs a bit of fixing. me: Windows XP SP3 Zone Alarm Firewall ================ "Epademic" wrote: > After downloading and installing the three updates available as of 07/08/08 I > found that I could no longer access the internet.
