Hi and welcome,

That error if I'm not mistaken is a ZoneAlarm(firewall) problem and from what I have been able to discern is possibly zonealarm conflicting with your anti-virus program.

I have sygate and AVG 7.0 and never any problems but have read about problems with ZA and certain AV's.

Maybe one of the moderators will jump in on this and confirm what the problem is.

This issue was also posted in the XP section with basically the same findings.

http://www.d-a-l.com/help/showthread.php?t=27297

There is alot to be read on the issue.

http://www.google.com/search?q=vsdatant.sys

Otherwise uninstalling ZA would be a first step.

Avast; AOL; SP2; ZA; alot of potential conflict.

hi i have uninstalled zone alarm and seeems to be running better...i cant understand this as i have had zone alarm for months with no problems ...question is do i put this back on or what ,have you any suggestions plz?

Here is a firewall that has never given any problems with antivirus programs that I am aware of and the one I use.

Sygate Firewall

put sygate on couldnt even get onto my isp ?had loads of problems took zone alram off seems to be ok what do you suggest now?

Hi,

Did you disable the firewall that comes with service pack 2(SP2)?

If not that could be the problem as two active firewalls will cause many a problem.

SP2 firewall might be all that you need if computer is doing fine without the other ones you tried.

yes i disabled the windows firewall,has my hijack log been checked??

I see an item or two that can be fixed but let's do some scans because HJT does not always show everything that needs to be seen.

Lets see what some virus scans can uncover and we will go from there.

Get the stinger here:
http://vil.nai.com/vil/stinger/

Download it to another computer if need be, and bring it to the affected computer on floppy disk.

It will kill the top 53 virus files if any are found there

then,

Internet Explorer required
Run these two online virus scanners (Panda Activescan) following these instructions below:
http://www.pandasoftware.com/product..._principal.htm


Internet Explorer required
Also this excellent(BitDefender) scanner:http://www.bitdefender.com/scan8/ie.html

Both scanners will produce a log please save them and post them back here please with a new HJT log also. Thanks
