ZA crashed my XP system 32 hll& dll files. I had to
reinstall xp systems. On restart ZA is noe installed. I
want to remove but I'm afraid of another system crash. Pls
advise.

How to uninstall
http://store.www5.zonelabs.master.com/texis/master/search/?q=uninstall&submit.x=12&submit.y=18

Follow instructions carefully.
Also don't stay without a firewall. At least, once you're done uninstalling
ZA, enable your xp built-in firewall. Post back if you don't know how to
enable xp's.

Open Control Panel/Network Connections, right click the connection you use
and select Properties/Advanced. Place a check mark in the "Internet
Connection Firewall" option.

Control Panel/Network and Internet Connections/Network Connections/Local
Area Connection/Properties/Advanced and check "Protect my computer and
network" under the Internet Connection Firewall menu. There is a button
called "Settings" which you can select different ports to exclude but I just
left it with the default settings and ran a check at "Gibson Research Corp.
http://grc.com/default.htm and it showed that all the ports in my computer
were hidden (stealth mode) from prying eyes :) but remember the XP firewall
only hides your internet connection from incoming probes.
