Im running ZoneAlarm Pro on my main PC and standard on my laptop. It was working fine till I downloaded the latest version and installed it.
Before I just set Internet Protection to Highest, so it was in stealth mode and used the advanced options to set my PC as an ICS/Nat Gateway with the IP of my Wireless Adapter.
I tried to do the same in this latest version and the internet now doesn't work on the laptop. See all the advanced settings below:

Those are the same settings I believe as they used to be, but the laptop just sits there saying "detecting proxy settings" in the bottom left, then gives an error page.
Is there something i've selected wrong or someit?
Ok, just repeating myself, but to some it up: I installed the latest version of Pro, didnt change anything and the internet on the wireless laptop no longer works. I've set options as they used to be, with internet on highest (altho ive tried medium and low as well, and trusted zone on off and medium), but the laptop gets no internet, only my main PC, as its the gateway.
Just to re-iterate, my network is an adhoc network, which you can find out about on google.com.
The internet works on the laptop IF the firewall on my PC is closed down completely, ie right click close, which shows this problem is this blasted FW!!!
ANY Help is appreciated, thanks in advance!

ummm, im scared. no.
I had this same problem with ICS. You need to reinstall ZoneAlarm 4.5, and then it works OK. I'm not sure what you mean about uninstall being complicated - its a standard Windows uninstall. The ZoneLabs site has the previous version available for download if you don't have it locally.
I believe they're working on a patch to fix the problems.
There are lots of problems with the new version, but if you just want ICS to work, look in Program Control/Programs and you will probably see that Generic Host Process has a large red cross next to it. Change that to a green tick, and ICS will work.
But it still causes problems with virus checkers and other things.
