Well Microsoft forgot to tell Checkpoint to change Zone Alarm. Loaded the Security patch this morning and after reboot I had no Internet Access.
Figured out the problem by checking the firewall logs. Shutting off Zone Alarm and switching to Microsoft's firewall sorted this issue immediately.
The Zone Alarm website seems to indicate that this problem only occurs with Windows XP and that Vista is not affected.
There will be a lot of people who will not have a clue what has happened.
