......is very good. But it is also very annoying, as it keeps popping up in the bottom right corner saying Privacy Settings have done stuff to this website.

How do I stop it doing this?

And can I direct you to the Networking 2 Computers topic.

When it says 'detecting something from blaa blaa blaa', at worst it means that some script kiddie somewhere is scanning your entire ISP, and their script is just passing you by. No hacker anywhere in the world has any specific interest in your PC, it holds nothing of value.

If security holes are found by the script in your PC, another script (at the request of said kiddie) may come along and exploit it, but they will only use your PC to launch a denial of service attack against someone else. While this is annoying, it is something to worry about after you get your network working :O)

But they're not trying to enter your computer! It's not possible! This isn't the Matrix or some cheap Hollywood sci-fi, hacking into someone's computer and gaining any kind of control is really difficult, and it's not as if sane hacker cares about your home computer anyway! Get rid of it!

Uninstall it, eh? But I keep getting messages like "X is trying to enter your computer" and so on.

I haven't even read your post. Uninstall ZA Pro. It is wholly and utterly useless in every single way. I garauntee there is no use for it whatsoever in your setup. Go on, try me.
