Read the docs but I still cant get this working.
First off I dont see zonealarm as a service but I do see the service
"TrueVector Internet Monitor" ie
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ZoneLabs\vsmon.exe -service and I see the process
zclient.exe. So I assume TrueVector is the zonealarm service.

cygrunsrv.README has :

-------------------------------
-y, --dep <svc_name2>
Optional name of service that must be started before this
new service. The --dep option may be given up to 16 times, listing
another dependent service each time. Try to avoid dependency loops:
that is, if svc_A depends on svc_B, but svc_B depends on svc_A...
-------------------------------

I tried to add to the service "CYGWIN sshd" a dependency but could not
see how to do this. You cannot amend the 'Path to executable' - I
noticed that zonealarm service has a parameter ie
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ZoneLabs\vsmon.exe -service. But I can stop the
service and add 'Start parameters' so I added: -y vsmon.exe. But
noticed that the Apply button is not enabled and once the service is
started these parameters are removed.

So I then tried amending my shortcut in startup from
C:\cygwin\bin\cygrunsrv.exe --start sshd
to
C:\cygwin\bin\cygrunsrv.exe --start sshd -y vsmon.exe
but then the service no longer will start!

Also tried variations on this:
C:\cygwin\bin\cygrunsrv.exe --start sshd -y
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ZoneLabs\vsmon.exe
C:\cygwin\bin\cygrunsrv.exe --start sshd -y
"C:\WINDOWS\system32\ZoneLabs\vsmon.exe"
C:\cygwin\bin\cygrunsrv.exe --start sshd "-y
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ZoneLabs\vsmon.exe"
C:\cygwin\bin\cygrunsrv.exe --start sshd "-y TrueVector Internet
Monitor"
but none of these seem to work. Also tried replacing -y with --dep
