No you are NOT invisible running Windows in Parallels. Assuming that you have Zone Alarm set up propertly, it sounds like you are just lucky so far. If you are really uncertain, clone a working copy of Windows, turn off Zone Alarm, go visit some nasty sites - shouldn't be hard to find those with some googling - and see what happens. I think you'll be glad you have the cloned copy!
