I downloaded this security update and on restart my computer would not
complete the start. It appeared to load everything until it got to Zone
Alarm. It then hung up with the pointer and the hourglass. I started in
SafeMode, ran MSconfig and unchecked the 891711 item. I did a lot of other
things but this worked. On restart the computer started successfully. To
prove my actions, I checked the update again and the computer would not start
properly. I took it out again and all was well. Should I/How do I take this
item out of my computer? Or will I have to just leave it unchecked in
MSconfig? If this update is important, why isn't it working properly?
