| Re: EZTrust Antivirus crashes everytime...?
NamVet, if I were you, I wouldn't be so quick to blame the AV. In my many years as a Windows kernel programmer, I've had to "fix" my product that would crash due to poor implementations in other product's drivers. It is not uncommon for one product to expose a long standing bug in another more popular product... Oh the world of IRP stacks, and IRP cancel routines is dark and murky.

| said by Fire_Emblem : -------, and version 6.1.5.8 of EZ Trust AV with the latest signatures as well.
Have only now come across this thread and just in case you may re-visit Fire_Emblem, EZ 6.1.5.8 had bugs that were acknowledged by Computer Associates and which led to it releasing a later update, the current version 6.1.7.0.
I have tried 6.1.7.0 and found it performed without a hitch; however, it has an annoying 'Sammy' splash screen which pops up on each and every boot/reboot. I tried every which way to get rid of it but without success and I later learned that CA had told another user who complained that it could not be removed.
If you are prepared to put up with the splash screen you might consider installing 6.1.7.0; otherwise, if you are able, do what I did and go back to 6.1.4.0 which was a good stable version. | |

| Re: EZTrust Antivirus crashes everytime...? It appears the conflict between eTrust EZ antivirus and ZA Free has been resolved. Running XP, I just updated to EZ antivirus 6.1.7.0 and have been using ZAF 3.7.211. Using the right-click, I was able to scan an individual file with no 'hang up'. I had problems using EZ 6.1.5.8 | |

Thank you for the post. I will bring this to the attention of the Zone Labs folks. I'm running ZAPlus, so can only believe what is posted on the released version page. (I'm going to send an email to my Zone Labs contact before I go to bed tonight.) -- *Team Z* Member **PCQ&A Forum** | |

| Response from CA re: the irritating splash screen:
Hello Gail, Due to overwhelming feedback from users who wanted to see that EZ Antivirus was loading and running, we instituted the splash screen as part of the boot process. This splash screen runs off of the VetTray service, which also controls scheduled scan and signature download jobs, so it cannot be disabled.
I do appreciate your suggestion, the ability to disable this splash screen is in the plans for a future release of EZ Antivirus. However, there is no ETA as to when this will be released.

| The latest version of Zone Alarm, 3.7.211, fixes this problem. I just upgraded to it and EZTrust no longer crashes when I use the right mouse click context menu. | |
