No, it does not. In fact, 192.168.1.1 is my own PC - not an external IP address. Any other suggestions, any one?

Check your ZA config to ensure that it's bound to your NIC.

Goto ZoneAlarm security/ settings/ advanced
Add the 192.168.1.1 address

I think that will cure it. It is ZoneAlarm that is doing the blocking.
