Did you upgrade to 3.52? If you did try going back to 3.31. If you didn't upgrade to 3.52. It could be one of those bugs that will exist till all this is out of Beta.

nope... I didnt upgrade. It isnt the first time this has happened either. It stopped working with just numbers the last time. Very frustrating! Its the only place I seem to have a problem at :(

restart WinMX, if it doesn't fix it, upgrade to 3.52 :?
If that doesn't fix it could be your computer :?

I would check for conflicts..... or now 3.53 is going and that might help it.
Some other software could be messing with MX!

It seems I have to say this daily. ZoneAlarm itself is not the problem. Many users, me included, have no problem with it. The issue may be **related** to ZoneAlarm suggesting that it doesn't like something in some users computers, whether it be software or hardware. I have problems using sygate for winmx which many people recommend. The answer then, isn't to automatically bin ZoneAlarm, but to try **changing** your firewall until you find one that suits your needs.

welll usually after i recommend people to get rid of it the problem stops if they think it's related to ZA, but i had an issue with winmx & ZA and only heard about 3-5 people, including you, who have good relations betweeen the 2 progs...

So, in fact, you do hear of people it works for.
I repeat my last sentence from above: The answer then, isn't to automatically bin ZoneAlarm, but to try **changing** your firewall until you find one that suits your needs.
