just wild guessing here:

if you want to use 'http://myip/myaspnetapp.aspx', make sure that the
base directory of your iis acutally contains the file. otherwise you
might want to use 'http://myip/mywebapp/default.aspx', where 'mywebapp'
is the virtual directory containing your project.

Just maybe a shot in the wild but.

Are you sure zonealarm allows acces to your http-port:80

I a bit hesitate to ask, are you talking your website hosted publicly or on
a computer in your own private network?

So, is the IP is a publci IP? The Internet users can only see your network
if your network has a public IP. You need to talk to your ISP, or most
likely and viable solution is to host your website (and the ASP.NET project)
with a ISP. It is not a .NET issue, rather it is network issue.

You need to do some background reading on firewalls, routers, port
forwarding and static versus dynamic IP addresses.

No one single answer IMHO.
