I can't get in....but I'm no expert and I have a feelling you shouldn't rely on Zone Alarm to protect you if you're running your own server.
| Tom,
|
| I think I fixed it! Please try accessing my site
http://www.remotedirector.com to see if 1st you can access it, and 2nd if you can change anything & save it . I think the original problem was the firewall. Turns out the ZoneAlarm firewall does not support IIS. It is meant to be just for clients, not servers. Secondly, I uninstalled it. I was immediately able to access the site correctly. Then, I installed an earlier version of ZA, per recommendations at the ZA site. I was unable to access my site from the outside. What I did was configure ZA to ask for permission on any new requests. Then I accessed each tab in the properties for "default web site" in IIS. ZA asked for permission - I allowed it. Now I'm able to access my site from the outside and it appears to function correctly. Now, if you could try accessing it and try to change something, that'd be great. Please post what happens. Thank you!
