I have Windows XP and DSL connection. Should I use the ICF in conjuction with another firewall(Zone Alarm)or is the Microsoft ICF sufficient by itself.

Would you really trust only MS ICF? It only prevents connections to your PC. Zonealarm controls both outgoing and incoming requests. It can be a bit confusing, so set it to learning mode, and notice what you are doing when it asks for permission to access the internet. Do you also use a router? You may have firewall functions built in, also.
If you're asking for technical help, please be sure to include all your system info, including operating system, model number, and any other specifics related to the problem. Also please exercise your best judgment when posting in the forums--revealing personal information such as your e-mail address, telephone number, and address is not recommended.
