    I looked at zone alarm today to see the traffic and it blocked 0 objects. Is this good or bad?

    All depends on a few things. Immediately that spring to mind is...
    1. How long have you been running Zonealarm?
    2. Do you have a Hardware firewall/router?
    3. Is windows firewall also enabled?

    If you use ZoneAlarm , it will automatically disable Windows Firewall . If you somehow manage to turn it on , you should not do it because having more that one firewall/antivirus will result in confict between the programs and possible crash .

    It depends , it is good because hackers don't want your computer :)
