Yesterday I installed the ZoneAlarm firewall on my PC. Today, my Windows XP was ridiculously slow at startup. I already have BitDefender AV 2009 installed, but the firewall feature is disabled. Also, the ani-virus feature on ZoneAlarm is not installed, so there shouldn't be a problem, as far as I know.
I tried restarting the PC, same thing happened. For about 10 minutes, i can't do a thing...
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
#2 Re: installed ZoneAlarm firewall - slow startHello, welcome to PCHF.
What version of ZoneAlarm are you running?
#3 Re: installed ZoneAlarm firewall - slow startZoneAlarm version:8.0.298.000
#4 Re: installed ZoneAlarm firewall - slow startTry a clean reinstallation first by following the instructions here:
Re: Clean removal difference - Installation, Uninstall and Upgrade - ZoneAlarm User Forum
Is this the free version, security suite, or what?
#5 Re: installed ZoneAlarm firewall - slow startYes, it's the free version.
Thank you for the tip, but i already uninstalled it (it was way too annoying) and installed Ashampoo.
No problems now...
#6 Re: installed ZoneAlarm firewall - slow startOK glad that you got the matter resolved.
