Yeah, XP firewall is fine for normal everyday surfing. If you need something more, and prefer not to use Zone Alarm, maybe try get your hands on Norton Personal Firewall 2004 (http://www.symantec.com/sabu/nis/npf/)

You can just remove your network form ZoenAlarm's monotoring... Then it wont hassle your LAN... Ive had it for a week or two {Thanks to recommendation by Psycho} , and Im AMAZED at what it does...
