Hi

Good to know all is well.

As to stopping attempted intrusions that's exactly what your firewall is supposed to do. It shows your firewall is working. I also use Zone Alarm Free personal firewall and I've just checked the statistics - up to now it tells me that, since the last upgrade a while ago, it has blocked 24230 intrusions of which 7514 have been classified as "high rated".

Mostly you needn't worry about them too much. Just make sure you do regular scans and remove them if you don't want them. Spybot Search & Destroy should do the job.

Hope that helps.

Best wishes.
