Guest Mark Posted August 11, 2008 Posted August 11, 2008 KB951748 shuts down my ability to connect to the network. I have searched the Registry for Zone Alarm keys, general Directories for Zone alarma DB's and or file. No Zone Alarm products running that I can discern. Windows XP-media center, SP2, Windows Live One care firewall. I continue to "unload" KB951748 after it installs through auroupdates. IS thereany other known comflict for the KB in question other than the ZOne Alarm product? Does Windows Live care firewall use a form of Zone Alarm? Thnak you. Mark

Is there any reason you're using the Live Care firewall instead of the built-in XP firewall? Is the built-in firewall disabled in place of the live card Firewall? - Thee Chicago Wolf
Guest Mark Posted August 11, 2008 Posted August 11, 2008 Re: Not Using Zone alarm KB951748 shutsdown network connect You are rcorrect. The XP firewall is in place and Livecare firewall is off. Do you know of an adjustment or tweak to change the XP firewall to allow KB 951 to operate? Thnak you. Mark "Thee Chicago Wolf" wrote: > >KB951748 shuts down my ability to connect to the network.

What you could do is uninstall and ask Windows update to not automatically install it but the caveat is that you'd not be wholly protected by what the DNS patch fixes. Seems only some ISP are patching the issue these days so you can't really count on them fixing the DNS bug and reducing your risk were you to uninstall it. It's also possible to uninstall it and use a registry tweak to make sure the DNS is querying the correct IP so as to not be vulnerable to cache poisoning. If you want to try it out, give this a shot: 1. Start > Run > type Regedit and press OK 2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters 3. See if you have a key named QueryIpMatching 4. If it happens to be there, it's very likey it's set to 0 (disabled). You'll want it to be set to 1 (enabled) 5. If it does not exist, right-click in the settings pane (on the right), choose New > DWORD Value, for the value put QueryIpMatching and press OK. 6. Click twice on the new entry and set the value to 1. It's a slightly less certain defense against DNS Cache Poisoning than the actual patch but at least you'll be protected. Let me know how it goes. - Thee Chicago Wolf
Guest Mark Posted August 11, 2008 Posted August 11, 2008 RE: Not Using Zone alarm KB951748 shutsdown network connect The issue occurs o matter which firewall I invoke.

Just curious. - Thee Chicago Wolf
