Received also the follow message: 1) I dispute the fact that zone alarm is working 100% under win2k. Once installed it wouldn't let my win2k box shut down or restart. And if I tried to stop the vsmon process the taskmanager would lock up. So I tried uninstalling it, and it locked up the uninstall program. I had to boot with a disk, rename vsmon.exe to something else, then uninstall the damn thing. 2) Another word on the ZoneAlarm program: On my machine this software works fine except for the annoying fact that it prevents the computer from entering the Suspend-to-ram stand-by feature. Whenever the program is running, an attempt to enter stand-by will cause a BSOD 'power_driver_state_failure'. Maybe this problem is in conjuncture with another driver but I haven't been able to track down the source and everything works fine when ZoneAlarm is not running 3) Web site says no SMP. but it will work if you: 1. Connect to web, 2. go to task manager set affinity for zonealarm to cpu0 and 3. close zonealarm and reopen
