Inside Zone Alarm itself, there is a section where you can select to "Allow" your game to be played. If I'm not mistaken, it's in the Program Files section (if that is the name, I forgot).

Go to that section, scroll down and find your game name. From there, right-click on each buttons next to it and select Allow.

I guess this is still the best sig in the entire forum! ^_^

Thats weird, usually when a program is trying to access the net, ZoneAlarm will ask you for permission.

In anycase open your Program control and enable trusted for programs you want trough.

Not sure about that, I've never did any changes to IP address.
You can try though, see what happens.

You dont need to set any Ip adress, and I dont think theres such a feature in ZA.

Just Allow the Program.
