Nick,

I thought that problem affected users running ZoneAlarm in conjunction with
the Linksys router, but I could be wrong.  I know that 1.42.3 has problems
blocking ping and tracert commands, and potentially some other stuff.

1.39.0 worked fine for me....  maybe I should go back to that one, too.
