Hi All,
I use PCCillin and it works fine until I installed ZonealarmPro. It PCillin fails to load. I have to open it from the start menu (I even put it in the start-up dir).Is there anywhere (perhaps Regedit)that I can make it load BEFORE ZoneAlarmPro?

On my other PC running Win'ME everything runs fine.
(PIII 600 w/640mg ran)
 
I would go look at the msconfig..startup tab and see if it is in there.
Start>>run>>msconfig
I would uncheck Zone Alarm you can always start it from the task bar
right click on the taask bar>>toolsbar
click Zone Alarm it should take off
The real problem is the PCCillin and Zone Alarms are in conflict.
You do not need Zone Alarm unless you are on the Net or you have DSL or Cable Modem. If you have DSL or Cable Modem I would have Zone Alarm Start first and
start PCCILLIN forr mail, downloads or surfing the net.
 
HI mrfixit,Thanks but I tried that with no luck.Turns-out "that" system went haywired...on my other system(quick-swap HD)I've got Trend; ZoneAlarm; SETI@home AND Memturbo running all together just right.

Thanks for your input...
 
I have know of PCCILLIN messing up systems. This happen to a complete of our
Windows 98 machines.

Sorry it did not work!!
