    I don't like XP. Is it just me?

    To make it short I have ran both 2000 and XP on my current system and have to admit that until I worked out the XP bugs and necessary configs I was skeptical and even switched back to 2k once.

    XP Professional loosing network connection on home network

    jc- uncheck the option to have zone alarm check the router, it uses bandwidth, it requires you to specify which IP the errors report to (which could be causing the lost connection), and using ZAP within your computer alone will protect you from hackers. Try that and don't give up. Tom Caldwell...

    yep the laptop must have a zap pro license or she won't be able to connect but running it standalone on the OS should be fine plus using it through the router will consume bandwidth. Keep the forum posted

    You must manually remove any former components of Norton before installing, and if using XP it must be Norton 2002 as all others are not compatible. A good program for doing this is JV16PowerTools which can be found at www.jv16.org, or do a search on google for it. This program will allow you...
