I was doing some surfing the web yesterday and one of the web sites haven't been to for a while had some weird characters around the web site. At first I assumed that they were doing some debugging since it appeared to be random 4 digit codes in random places on the web site. Later in that same session I had some problems viewing one of the theme demo pages on the same site; so I disabled the Privacy system in ZA and notice that the web site worked properly without the codes. So I investigated it a little more and here are the results of my tests: 1. I.E. 5.5 & Netscape 4.7x will both show the page with random 4 digit codes randomly through the page. 2. Netscape 6.2.1 won't show the page -- the view source for the page only shows "< html>< body>< /body>< /html>" (without the spaces) 3. Opera 6.01 refuses to do anything with the page. If I disable the Zone Alarms Privacy features (i.e. Click on the Browser in Program Control->Programs and turn off Privacy) all the browsers work properly as then ZA is no longer filtering the connection. I filled out the form on ZA's website to report this and got back a nice canned response that had nothing to do with the problem I reported. So I replied and got another stupid response from them that again had very little to do with the problem. So can someone confirm this problem: I'm using Windows 2000 fully patched. Zone Alarm 3.0.118 (Latest Version) The web site www.phpbb.com. Nathan.
