ZoneAlarm Working Overtime

My ZoneAlarm (free) is working overtime blocking things.

I'm using a dialup connection.

It is blocking 2 or 3 items per minute trying to access ports 445 or 135, and many of these requests originate at my own ISP.

There are additional items from elsewhere that ZoneAlarm thinks are port scans.

When I disconnect, DLLs on my machine try to send two messages to black holes or .....

I'm surprised at all this busy-work which ZoneAlarm is faced with..

Ideas?
