Please, help me to know if it's a dangerous or suspictious activity on my computer.

Most likely not. Actually, it's most likely a glitch in ZoneAlarm.
However, as always "Being paranoid doesn't mean you're not being watched" When the suspicious activity happens, open up a DOS Prompt and type "netstat -a". If there are very suspicious addresses there, reply back and state the full address (Port, proto, status etc.)
