Zone Alarm Problems

Hi guys, hope somebody can help me here (please...)

I have installed Virtual PC 2004 onto my Windows XP Pro system. No problems
there.
I have installed a copy of Windows 98 onto the Virtual PC. No problems there.
However, whenever I try and access a network connection... NADA.
When I completely shut down Zone Alarm Pro, and then try and access a
network connection from within Virtual PC... SUCCESS!
This means that to get network access from within Virtual PC I need to
completely shut down Zone Alarm (not just reduce the security slider), which
puts my main pc at risk!

Strange thing is, Win98 on the Virtual PC IS getting a DHCP allocated IP
address, and if I try and use duplicate network names then it kicks off quite
correctly and tells me that the name is already in use on the network (which
means I have a network presence). And yes, I can ping my localhost and my own
IP address within the VIrtual PC, even with Zone Alarm running.

To sum up (finally) I can get an allocated ip address to my router, and I
can get network validation, I just can't communicate with Zone Alarm running.

Does anybody know how to poke holes through Zone Alarm to allow the Virtual
PC o/s to communicate with the rest of my network? Which ports and protocols
are used? Is it a NetBios session being blocked thru Zone Alarm?

Any input gratefully received (sorry for waffling on...)

Regards
Steve
