so giving my laptop to my brother to completely reinstal lwindows was not needed then

If your problem was exactly what this thread was about then no. All you needed was to install/upgrade to the latest release of ZoneAlarm."She is quite the oddball. Did you notice how she didn't even get excited when she saw this original ZX-81?"

I meant to mention this earlier. I notice that I've installed ZoneAlarm Spy Blocker which is directly under my Google tool bar. Should I remove this too before I installed the firewall?0

Hooray! I managed to download ZA's firewall OK and decided to leave the ZoneAlarm Spy Blocker for now as I thought it would be a good idea to keep it for the time being. If anyone can advise otherwise then that would be gratefully welcome.
Thanks for all the help!
