    Once in a blue moon, Zonealarm Security Suite 7 would load up slower, and report to me that my antivirus isn't running, and if I would like to turn it on. All my settings, including firewall, program permissions, etc, would all be reverted to default settings. I know this could be avoided by using the backup settings feature, but I want to know how to fix this problem.

    Bro,

    Why you are running ver. 7? I guess the new version is 9...So why don't you use that?

    I heard the newer versions are extremely bloated.

    Doesn't really matter now though. I've switched to ESET Smart Security, and it has trimmed a lot of boot time from my computer.

    Regardless the security tool you use its important you keep it up-to-date. Running an old security tool (e.g. ZA Suite 7) its like running no security tool!! ;)

    That question has already been asked, and the OP has already answered.
    Why on earth would you ask the same question?

    And, since the original poster has also said they have changed products in the meantime, let's wrap up this thread here.
