Can anyone plz help? This is by design since you *don't* want two firewalls running. If you want to continue using ZoneAlarm, then leave the Windows Firewall disabled. If you don't want ZoneAlarm, then uninstall per ZA's uninstallation instructions at their website and then enable the built-in Windows Firewall.
