ffs

Open a cmd, type 'format c: /y'

Omg, phone billy g, it's a massive DoS/vuln.

Get a grip bipin.  If a malicious user has command line access to your
system, 'zonealarm' is the last thing you should be worrying about.

In reply to my own previous email, I assumed ZA
would fail, as others
have on this list, with an EVERYONE:DENY security

isn't the case.
ZA 5.1 PRO Trial version will change this to
EVERYONE:FULL for the
duration of the program after which it will then
change these settings
back to the original EVERYONE:DENY. This throws out
the DoS theory, but
the permissions are still extremely permissive, if
the "truevector
driver" was to have issues with it's integrity
checks then the files in
this folder would be easily compromised.


not really, just simply, go to  internet log directory
and , do

..\..\Internet Logs\>attrib/s +h +s +r +a *.*

next time Zap'S "truevector driver" will fail to load.
when the pc reboots or zap restarts...
