Zonealarm cq MSN Messenger

Hi,

Since I Installed ZoneAlarm security Suite, the payed version, the MSN
Messenger doesn't connect anymore.

In ZoneAlarm, Messenger is part of the accepted programs list. It's
the latest build (8.1.0178.00). I can set the Internet security and
Zone Security settings to 'off', but it still doesn't start.

However,when I shut down ZoneAlarm, Messenger connects successfully.
When I start ZoneAlarm again, I would suspect that the messenger
would be blocked again, but it didn't! So, if ZoneAlarm is started
after messenger is connected, there are no problems.

Are there solutions to this problem? Do I have so configure something
else?

Thx Roy
