saying that the application failed to initialize properly 0xC0000142 and that I should click ok to terminate the application. Hopefully my predicament is appreciated. I have also come across where it is stated that these two files are malicious and was prevented from running on my PC.
ZoneAlarm Pro version:6.0.667.000
TrueVector version:6.0.667.000
Driver version:6.0.667.000
Anti-spyware engine version:4.0.9.21
Anti-spyware signature DAT file version :01.200511.173
I have run several programs in an effort to find any thing unusual but they all came up as clean. I am now enclosing a copy of HJT hoping someone might be able to advise if there is anything there which might be causing my problems.
