I was going to say it, but here's a post by a "Microsoft Moderator" not sure what that is. Link Removed - Invalid URL oh..ok, I'll say it anyway because she says "Temporarily disable", I've got to say uninstall them completely...you can always put them back later. There is also some information in there and a link to another page which talks about editing the registry. Do so at your own risk and back it up first. Just try uninstalling zonealarm and any other internet security suites that may be causing a problem including antivirus programs. Hope this will help...post back and let us know
