Windows7 vs. MSEssentials vs. ZoneAlarm = Freeze!

vpnavy · 2010-03-12

FYI - If you are running ZoneAlarm and want to run Microsoft Essentials - you might encounter system freeeeeeezes! I uninstalled Grisoft (AVG) and installed Microsoft Essentials. I immediately started having system lockups. At first I didn't tie both together and did a Restore (from previous backup) just to have my Netbook lock up solid. I got on my desktop and did a search and found a bunch of users experiencing lockup's when running Microsoft Essentials and ZoneAlarm. I uninstalled Microsoft Essentials, re-installed Grisoft (AVG) and having had a lockup since.
