every time i turn on my PC.. my zonealarm firewall gives this message: The firewall has blocked internet access to 192.168.2.1 (DNS) access from your computer.... what does this mean? if i click more info it says that its nothing to worry about and there is no immediate danger...but does anyone have any idea what this means? i get it everytime windows starts
 
Do you have any other computer attached to your network?

192.168.~~~~ is a private IP meaning its orginating from your network.
 
yes i have 2 other pcs on my network. they are both dell optiplexes that my dad needs for work. is this message a problem? what should i do?
 
ok its 192.169.2.1 which is the same one that zonealrm blocks. what does this mean and what should i do about it?

wtf?

It means that your other computer is trying to connect or send data to that computer. As to why its trying to do this I have no idea.

You could configure zone alarm to allow it, but How is your network setup?

What is your router model?
 
my network setup is simple.. i have a mototrola cable modem.. that goes in to my router (the router is a belkin) then.. on the network i have the pc in my sig.. and 2 other dell optiplexes.. my dad and my sisters
