i have just read too much and it seem that no one has found an answer to this, i have tu dissable it in order to play? why?, could someone find out why and pinned this topic too, it seems so many people having  problems with ZA.  <

I was having problems too but managed to get zonealarm working with xlink.  Have a look at:

m8, i read that, and configured as you say but still nothing for me, it has to be something else.  <

Hmm.  Have you added your xbox's IP as a trusted zone?  <

i just did now, i mean, my xbox is connected to my network so zone alarm let in everything from 10.0.0.0 on, right? so if my xbox was an ip that belonged to that network then ZA would have let the xbox to send and receive info, right?, so now (i´m not at home and beside my tv burnt out last night, for real, burnt out), now i just add my xbox ip (10.0.0.4) as a trusted zone, meybe that will work.

one more thing:
Internet Zone Security - Stealth Mode (HIGH)
Custom options:
- Allow outgoing DNS (UDP port 35)
- Allow outgoing DHCP (UDP port 67)
- Allow broadcast/multicast
- Block incoming NetBIOS (ports 135, 137-9, 445)

i have udp port 53 and not 35, would that mean something?

I am pretty sure that when you run your xbox in link mode it does not use an ip.  It uses a broadcast which your tunneling application translates to an ip and sends over the net.  Thats probably not 100 percent accurate but I do no that it doesn't use an IP.  So zone alarm is probably blocking it.  I would try setting it in learning mode and see what ZA logs then try adding what ever it logs.  I know ZA has a pretty good learning mode feature.  <

it uses 0.0.0.1 in link mode.  <

learning mode? how you configure that?, anyway i just added o.o.o.1 in my log to see what happen.

I forgot to mention that i use VPN connection so i really need ZA to work while i play with xlink.
