Updating Zone Alarm
« on: April 20, 2006, 07:42:53 AM »
My latest update tells me I must find True Vector in Device Manager and disable it before it will update.

However, I cannot find True Vector. Where is it and is it safe to disable and then re-enable it once the update is complete?

I have Windows ME.

Thank you. ;D

    I have Zone Alarm too, but don't remember it asking me to disable it in device manager as it is not a device, but a service instead.

    To disable it:
    1. Right click on the ZA icon in your system tray (lower, right corner)
    2. Click "Shutdown ZoneAlarm Pro"
    3. Click yes in the pop-up window

    This might be a little different because I have XP, not ME, but should be similar, if not the same.

      I'm thinking you really mean disable in the "Task manager" ....not in the Device manager.......
      Ctrl/Alt./Del ....should get you there .
