Regarding your ZAproblem, please follow these instructions all the way through, as originally received from ZoneLabs: Thank you very much, Glen. My manual clean-out had missed steps 27, 29, 39 and the root certificate update. Things are better but still not right - I tried to reinstall ZA from my saved download from 2001 and got an error message about a missing vsinit.dll file which the instructions had said to delete. Since re-doing yet another uninstall I now seem to be able to stay on-line longer before things seize up - but the problem is still there. What I'll try next is to again reinstall Windows (knowing ZA is gone) then look for a later ZA download. Thank you too Harry - since the Lord Of The Rings movies were made here we've had a lot more favorable comment on our scenery from your part of the world. When I visited the USA in 1980 the question about NZ I remember most was "zat somewhere near New Brunswick?" The funniest encounter was with a Disneyland guide who remarked on my accent, which led to each of us insisting it was the other person who had one! I'll let you know how I get on. |

I didn't realize LOTR was filmed in NZ but it is beautiful country - because I know Xena: Warrior Princess was filmed there.. I hear the people in that part of the world aren't very friendly to Americans though. |

@TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl: You may want to give "Copper.net" a try, my experience with them is quite positive. Harry. I would second that. Been using Copper for years, very good. I called them today, they have 50K users now on DU, growing, no plans to end DU. ms |

Internet connection problem
Thanks again to everyone. My connection speed is back to what it was
and Broadband Report's tweak utility gives it the all-clear. Interesting what a few innocent-looking leftovers can do. I haven't had time to sort out the firewall re-install problem yet. I know there were issues with some versions of Zone Alarm, but I've got too much else to do right now, so for a few days I'll risk working without a firewall and hope Spyware Doctor gives me enough protection. We like Americans OK Eric - it's just your current administration we're not especially keen on. Then of course there was the nuclear ship spat of almost 30 years ago which America completely misunderstood - what we were objecting to (it was just after Chernobyl) was the risk of a nuclear-powered ship having a reactor accident while here and making our largest city uninhabitable for 50 years just so a few of your servicemen could have some R&R. That's not how your Secretary of State (I forget his name) saw it - he decided we were about to sabotage America's entire Pacific defense strategy and kicked us out of ANZUS, which got us into strife with neighboring Australia over commitments to joint defense operations. I guess politicians are the same all over the world. Please feel welcome to visit us - lots of Americans do and we'd love to have you. |

I'd love to come, but I would probably want to stay, and I don't think your immigration laws would let me. :-) Yes, the Lord of the Rings movies really made NZ more of a household name in the US....but the film I love from NZ is "The World's Fastest Indian", about Burt Munro: http://www.worldsfastestindian.com/ -- Glen Ventura, MS MVP Shell/User, A+ http://dts-l.net/ http://dts-l.net/goodpost.htm |

I looked up the nuclear incident out of curiosity. Happened only a little
over 20 years ago, in the mid-80s. The NZ gov. went anti-nuclear and effectively banned ALL US ships from landing in NZ (which made ANZUS treaty a tenuous.) Since the US doesn't say which ships have nuclear weapons and which don't, the nuclear ban had to be applied to all US ships. Interesting... Oh, and the Sec. of State at that time was George Schulz.
