Microsoft Shame KB951748

[Guest Lord Turkey Cough]

Whilst you will find nothing Help full om microsofts

site about the update which screws you system up you

will find help else where on Zonealarms forum for

example.

 

Microsoft is *still delivering* the update which will

kill peoples internet connection.

 

Bastards.

Even if that is true it is still highly irresponsible to release an update

which will

kill peoples internet access.

 

Also as far as I am aware ZA never denies acces silently, it

allways prompts when a new program tries to acccess.

The issue is caused by Zone Alarm not recognizing the change in the

files' sizes and checksums:

http://forum.zonelabs.org/zonelabs/board/message?board.id=cfg&message.id=52727

 

Suggest you read the fix.

This update is crucial. Even Linux has an update for this problem. If I

were you, I'd uninstall Zone Alarm and either get Comodo or use the

Windows Firewall.

Why should Microsoft have responsibility to test any of their

software/updates against every conceivable non-Microsoft product? If that

were the case NOTHING would ever get done.

Lord Turkey Cough is blaming the wrong party (Loves to Hate MS)

It was very poor design on the part of ZoneAlarm Free that killed the

internet connection.

The MS patch really is needed and a lot of servers are seeing this problem.

I've just installed the new relevant ZoneAlarm version 7.0.483.000,

and the outstanding MIcrosoft updates.

Everything seems to be working ok so far. Thanks to ZoneAlarm for

their swift action.

[Guest Lee Antony]

Re: Microsoft Shame KB951748

 

Swift action?

 

Checkpoint had knowledge of this update four months ago. They did nothing to

help their users until disaster came upon them. Maybe an error in timing

but still shame on them.
