Zone Alarm Pro

[hellacool]

Im running Zone Alarm Pro 2.6.362 on Win XP Pro. It seems to be working fine but at boot up I get errors in my event log.

Application:

1 - The description for Event ID ( 1 ) in Source ( True Vector Service ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: .

System:

1 - The TrueVector Internet Monitor service terminated with the following error:
An instance of the service is already running.

2 - Timeout (30000 milliseconds) waiting for the TrueVector Basic Logging Client service to connect.

3 - The TrueVector Basic Logging Client service failed to start due to the following error:
The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.

Are these normal? Like I said it is working fine but I do not like errors.

I don't get those errors...

I run the same version and I get zero errors at boot. Maybe you should uninstall, remove the registry entries, re-boot, see if you still have errors, then reinstall.

Actually this is normal for ZA Pro, although it doesnt happen to all people. It may something to do with Broadband connections, I dunno.

If its working fine, I wouldn't worry about.

I believe this error happens at logon, because for some reason True Vector Service tries to start itself twice. While its a bug that should be fixed, I dont believe it causes any problems other than maybe delaying your startup a little bit.

Fixed (for now)

I uninstalled ZAP, Deleted all directories and all instances in the reg. Reinstalled and it seems ok. One thing that bugged me was it still knew that I had installed this before and asked to use my old settings. I deleted everything I could find about ZAP in my reg. I wonder how it still knew? Thanks for the help.
