I use ZA also. My guess is there are other programs that have been accessing, or trying to access, the internet in the past, only now you are seeing it. This may be your antivirus software looking for updates, Windows Media Player looking for updates. Most of the Adobe software I have loves to check in with Adobe every 2-3 days (!?!). Those are just a few of my programs that were accessing the internet willy-nilly without my knowledge before I obtained ZA (I have DSL not a dial-up line). My guess is that is what is happening with you.
