WOW....I was having trouble on the Dual 1.4GHz TBird system with ZoneAlarm...so I removed it. Looking at taskmanager, it really never used over a few seconds of CPU time per day, but with it's removal, I've gained a 10%+ improvement in ECCp. Went from 300+- per day to almost 340+- per day! :Q
I remember the same with RC5...not sure about SETI. I have a router and feel somewhat secure, but I just don't know. 10% gain vs. a little less security...especially with all the Windows flaws!
/me goes to think about it....
SETI...see later post....may have been the reboot more than removing ZA.....
Also, just to test...removed it from my 1GHz TBird rig running SETI...will check the averages later this week!

The bold is the average...PC133 SDRAM on an A7V board. Win2k. We'll see without ZA what happens!
