Installed Zonealarm, now XP very slow to boot!?

[nade]

Hi,

Just recently re-installed WinXp from scratch. Updated/patched Windows up to latest patches, did Antivirus, then downloaded latest release of Zonealarm (free version).

Now when the PC is loading Windows, it's taking at least 4, maybe 5 mins to boot! Before zonealarm, it was at logon prompt within 30 secs

Any ideas? I think i've got an old copy of zonealarm kicking about, could try that. Or try an alternative?

Thanks for the replies. The machine is on SP1, so it doesn't have the Windows Firewall running.
