The Microsoft patches in question were released only yesterday.

If you have a hardware firewall or NAT router, moving the ZoneAlarm Firewall "Internet Security" slider to Medium is a safe approach, and avoids having to uninstall the Microsoft update.

If you don't have a hardware firewall, this is not safe to do because it allows file and printer sharing with anyone on the internet. But frankly, I'm sot sure whether it's any more or less safe than uninstalling the Microsoft patches.
