I'm not saying this to be offensive, but......

Rule # 1a - whatever the problem is, ME is NOT the answer.
Rule # 1b - any problem on a machine running ME - ME is the problem .

Seriously though, I can't think of anything good to say about ME. It has
been at the root of a great many problems. I prefer to either stay with
98, or use 200 Pro on most of my HD's (I have a number of HD's & use a
slide mount to swap then in/out. I'm currently running 2000 Pro & ZA Pro
with almost no problems, except - when the ad blocker is activated, &
blocks pop up/pop under ads, Expedia "Sign on Sign Up Sign out" page
won't load. The same problem occurs with other Expedia pages. I told
Expedia I was committed to blocking ads, and their response was - tough.
In typical MS form, they don't care if they lose a customer who spends
about $2500 a year through their site. Anyone got any opions on
Travelocity?

Have you tried, shut down ZA & then shutdown the machine, to achieve a
successful shutdown. Then reboot to get a clean reboot - or after a
successful boot - shut down ZA & then do a restart, to see if was a
problem with the way it ran after the boot after an unsuccessful
shutdown?
