    It must be an IP issue then.

    Kill off ZoneAlarm and connect the phone.

    Then open a command windows (Start > Run > Command or CMD)
    Type IPCONFIG /ALL
    and it'll list the IP address of all connections.

    You'll see the mobile device's IP address - you need to add this to the ZoneAlarm trusted IP zone (Firewall > Zones).

    So it still won't sync when ZA is running, but will when it isn't?

    If so, it is definitely a permissions issues for the sync application (if in doubt, change all you don't know about to ? rather than a red cross, then when they require access they will ask immediately), or an IP issue...
