hey ddp, zonealarm now includes an antivirus with its internet security suite (an upgrade that you have to pay extra for).

Unknown4, got into the Zonealarm control panel, check and see if it includes an antivirus. If it does, TURN IT OFF before you start running another antivirus program. Running 2 antivirus programs at the same time can cause problems with your computer.
Other than that one caveat, follow ddp's instructions. The man knows what he's talking about. His advice has saved my a$$ more than once.

Athlon64 San Diego core 3700+, ASUS A8N-E, Sapphire X1900XT, 320GB WD SATAII HD, 2GB Gskill mem. Win XP Pro SP2. Pioneer DVR111D. Nero 6.6.1.4, DVD decrypter 3.5.4.0. ,PS2 V7 w/no-solder and swap magic
