-Alternate Steps (Seems to work with recent versions)- Step 1 Go to Program Control -> Programs Step 2 Click on the Add button. Find Shareaza.exe on your computer and press Open. Step 3 Click on the blue question mark for "Internet Server" and select "Allow." The rest should turn to check marks. Step 4 If it doesn't work from here, go to Firewall -> Advanced. Check "Allow Uncommon Protocols at High Security" This should allow Shareaza to work while keeping your computer stealthed, except of course for the ports that Shareaza is using. This at least stealths ports such as port 25 and port 80, which can be common attack points.

Step 6 Click Apply and then OK.

Note: Some users have had trouble with ZoneAlarm Pro using large amounts of memory while Shareaza is running. You might try switching to the standard version if you run in to trouble.

Why does Zonealarm say Shareaza is sending an email?

Shareaza is not actually sending an email, this is happning because someone has configured their Shareaza client to run on port 25 which is the same port as SMTP. When Shareaza accesses this person on port 25 Zonealarm thinks it is sending an email.
