Hi guys,

I've just installed Zonealarm Firewall on my PC (Windows 98) and the unfortuante side effect is that I cannot view thumbnails , for example, in the Bird Identification forum.

This happened the last time I installed the firewall but rectified itself as soon as I uninstalled it.

Anyone got any ideas how to keep the firewall and view thumbnails???

Much appreciated,

I have had this same problem on and off for a couple of months. I just shut down my Zone Alarm before coming onto BirdForum.

Someday they will get more sophisticated security software which will let you designate some sites as safe.

Whilst i dont use Zonealarm , i do know that some other firewalls block images of a certain size.In other firewalls theres some times a list of these image sizes that can be deleted /added or altered.Could this also be the case with ZA?

I had problems with ZA after updating to version 5.0. I uninstalled it and reinstalled an earlier version.

Go to privacy on your zone alarm screen/site list/right click on birdforum.net link/click options/uncheck all boxes in cookies, ad blocking and mobile code.You should be set to go.
