Every time I start my machine, zap pro says its has detected a new IP, the
connection wizard guides me through until zap pro goes back to my system
tray after I click on finish. How do I prevent zap pro from doing this at
every boot up? I am on broadband.

Cheers

Get rid of ZoneAlarm and get Tiny Personal
Firewall. It is so much better than ZoneAlarm

Remove Zonealarm from your PC. You don't need it.

> I am on broadband.

Use the Windows-Firewall.

It's possible that's caused by a corrupted database.
Here is a "generic" set of instructions for refreshing/rebuilding a
corrupt ZoneAlarm database:

[Please note that this will remove your program permissions and Local
Zone settings, so you may want to make note of them. However,
re-establishing them is a simple process. You will be prompted again
for program access for all the applications that you use to access the
local network or Internet.]

- Step 1. Open the ZoneAlarm program, go into the Overview Preferences
tab and turn off "Load ZoneAlarm at startup".

- Step 2. If you are running Windows 95, 98, ME, or 2000, reboot your
system into either Safe Mode or to a Command Prompt. The method is
determined by your OS, but most systems will boot into safe mode by
either pressing F8 at the beep or holding the CTRL key during bootup.
You should now have no ZoneAlarm processes running on your system.

- Step 3. Open the Internet Logs directory (in 95/98/ME this will be
"C:\Windows\Internet Logs", in NT and 2000 it will be
"C:\Winnt\Internet Logs", in Windows XP it could be either of these
folders), where you will find a file named "iamdb.rdb" and a file
named after your computer with the ".ldb" extension. Delete both of
these files. If "backup.rdb" exists, delete it also.

- Step 4. Make sure that you EMPTY your Recycle Bin BEFORE rebooting
back into normal mode.

- Step 5. You will need to start ZoneAlarm manually. (Click "Start,"
"Programs," "Zone Labs" and either "ZoneAlarm" or "Zone Labs
Security"). ZoneAlarm will start up again with a fresh database. Each
program should ask for access again if the files were properly
deleted.

- Step 6. Be sure to RECHECK the "Load ZoneAlarm at startup".

This problem was a bug in ZAP 6.0.631.002. If you're using that version
(.002) then remove it and install the release after that (.003). It
fixes the problem.
