    Some kind soul responded to my questions re: Zone Alarm problems after SP2
    update. The response came from the zone alarm forums. It works.

    *****
    This is a glitch that happens for some, not all, with the installation of
    ZA, SP2 and Windows ... for some reason Windows gets confused with ZoneAlarm
    and Zone.Com and there are various reasons why, but there are a couple of
    solutions ... I hope this one helps ... BB
    In Windows Explorer go to My Computer > Local Disk ( C: ) > Program Files >
    Zone.Com > Zone Deluxe Games ... now drag and drop the Zone Deluxe Games
    Folder into the Folder labeled Program Files ... now delete the Zone.Com
    Folder ... Zone Alarm should now load without any problems and the Zone.Com
    Folder will not show-up any longer
