Hi all again, i know it's late but i have a tale to tell
Noticed the mention about Zone Alarm (i've got basic)
I had been turning it off everytime but i thought what the hell & unistalled it.
I had a previous copy of ZA Version 4.5 so i thought i'd put that on instead. Thats when the fun started, i was asked was i home , beginer, family etc & once i'd done all that it was going to start but (& i think Windows Firewall had started when i uninstalled ZA) it BLUE SCREENED ON ME
. Wow XP hardly ever does that but it did. The Message was something like "Windows has detected something that can cause damage to your system & will close & it did this every time i restarted.
Tried SAFE MODE & it froze with all the lines of script showing every time.
Seeking advice by phone i found the RESTORE TO LAST WORKING TIME or something like that instead of SAFE MODE.
This got me going but i had no firewall.
When i got back on the first thing i did was back up my recent stuff & now i'm a lot happier
I tried to inhstal it again & BLUE SCREEN
Did as before & back on.
Now i ran system restore to take me back 2 days - still no firewall?
Dare not do anything else at this momeny other than let you know whats gone on
Getting like a soap opera this is
Anyway its late yet again my system limping along what next.
I'm tempted to run my ghost disc of i got with my new system?????
Goodnight all
