I had the same problem with 6.0.31.003. For whatever reason, it
installed perfectly fine, but the first time I rebooted, the main app
would get stuck on startup, and a look at the task manager showed that
it was constantly starting and stopping, which of course created massive
system lag due to all the disk activity.
I dropped down to the previous V6 release (6.0.27,i think) and have
not had a problem since.
And before anyone tells me just to use the XP firewall, I use ZA on a
laptop the frequents "public" broadband connections. The more layers of
security, the better.
