    I have had zone alarm installed a few weeks now. I never seem to have any alerts whilst connected to the internet via my wired network at work. however, now i am connected at home i sem to getting lots of alerts from computers from 80.47.???.???
    Now i am currently using a dialup and my current IP also starts 80.47.???.???. Presumably this is not a coincidence, but what is happening. Should i be concerned, should i add 80.47.???.??? to my trusted zones. Is my ISP doing something naughty.

    When i look in my firewall zones it lists 80.47.201.3/255.255.255.255 as a WAN (PPP/SLIP) Interface
    I am not aware that i made any entries for this.

    Can anyone shed any light on what is happening
