this is getting old

[dab]

I installed pc-cillin from trend and then I also installed zonealarm. I keep getting this alert. The firewall has blocked Internet access to 203.66.2.53 (ICMP Echo Request ('Ping')) from your computer.
I entered that IP in the address bar and it takes me to a trend site in chineese. Anyone know how I can stop this?
thanks
David

Double click on the ZoneLabs icon in your taskbar and take out the check in "Show the alert popup window"

Cheers!

I did, but it still logs it. Actualy I`d like to know what it`s trying to do, especially the chineese part.

It's a cookie that resides on your machine that some company has marketing rights to. You excepted to have a cookie placed on your machine, automatically, as your machine is in no doubt excepting cookies, and the company now wants to know where you ahve been all day is all. Nothig to worry about since it blocked it sucessfully.

Cheers!

Click a few buttons and see what is behind them. Log properties would be a great start. Don't be afraid of the buttons.

Every program on your machine has Settings, or Preferences, or Options. These tell a program how to behave. The default settings will get you going but if you want a program to be productive, and work the way you want it to, then you have to setup your personal preferences in that one, and all your programs. Always look for the Preferences, Settings, Options when you install a program. Train them.

If you think you made a mistake while changing things to your settings but you don't know where, hit cancel and reopen the preferences and try again.

Cheers!
