    Default Zone Alarm Pro problems

    I have recently installed Zone Alarm Pro ver 3.5.166.
    Earlier today I tried to load an Acrobat pdf file from a web address.
    The Acrobat splash screen appeared & the word 'done' appeared in the bottom left hand corner, but the page remained blank.
    If I turn off Zone Alarm the page loads normally.
    I have tried altering everything I can think of in Zone Alarm that may cause this, but nothing seems to help.

    Also does anyone know what 'private headers' are? The Zone Alarm 'Help' menu tells you nothing!

    As for Private headers they are used in programming or development of sites. They are not inherently dangerous but can be abused (as can anything).

    Disabling them will cause a few sites not to work properly so it ends up being a balance between function and security.

    In any case it will make little difference. i think

    and it can also stop you from getting e-mails from wot some of my m8 have said

    Thanks for the reply crack_it.

    I have now replaced Acrobat Reader 4 with Acrobat 5 & I now have no problems!

    Those private headers seem to be used everywhere. If I enable 'privacy advisor', it pops up on every site I visit to tell me that private headers have been blocked.
