SpySweeper blocking ZoneAlarm contacting SpywareSites...?
I have just installed ZoneAlarm Free firewall and since installing SpySweeper keeps blocking connections to sites related to spyware, one of the sites was mypornmagpass.com even when all programs are closed, its so bad (30times per minute) that ive disabled that shield so it is now allowing the connections cos the popups were so annoying... now to be sure it was ZA i uninstalled it then all was fine so i re-installed it and it all started again, it doesnt even wait until ZA is launched...as soon as the install process reaches the end (before Vector service is started) SpySweeper starts blocking tons of connections... its as if ZA is installing and running something else thats making these connections...now i download ZA direct from there website... is ZoneAlarm Spyware free?

does anybody have any experience with this?
