Good to hear ya got er fixed!

Isnt it funny how zone alarm can cause problems, when it is supposed to be there to keep problems away?

Actually if ya google it, youll find your not the only one to have that happen with zone alarm.

Yeah a broken computer sucks! They are fairly easy to fix though, they look somewhat intimidating, but they are fairly simple.

Another good thing to do is wipe and format every once in awhile, keeps everything fresh.

That takes a little know how though.
