Maybe you set up ZA (at the beginning the firewall tries to block everything).

IV is fine (few pop-ups are allowed, and with FFX and Adblock+ you will see none).

Sorry MDR but the newest vers. of ZoneAlarm is blocking Tinyurl and some others sites they consider as virus-spreading sites.

There is a serious discussion going on just now between ZoneAlarm and users.

Yeah, seems they blocked tinyurl because of some spyware redirections:

Sorry to know, just found it on google.
I don't use ZA since few years, too much sites were blocked (especially if you're interested in pr0n and/or warez sites) and I had a lot of extra work to put them on the white list every time I was surfing.
Therefore no more ZA, only Windows Firewall.
