This is something to do with Zone Alarm.

I think it should stop after a few times. If not, PM me and I'll find a permanent solution...

it might be trying to run something in startup that WAS on a floppy disc in your "A:\" disc drive... :?

Sounds like Quiffy's on the ball there.

I've noticed that with the way Windows saves shortcuts to recent documents under "Documents" on the Start Menu, if you ever access anything on a floppy there's a tendency for your floppy drive to go positively mental pretty much forever afterwards. You might try clearing them down as well.

goto www.iolo.com and download system mechanic 4. It's a groovy little tool that will clean up as well as remove dead short cuts, inavlid registry entries and a lot of other stuff.

it's 30 days free trial.

:D

that should get rid of your A:\ drive startup problems.
