This is going to sound like a lousy answer, but can you temporarily
uninstall NWS 2005 and ZoneAlarm? (Go with the built-in firewall
temporarily and see if the situation improves. The reason that I ask is
that both offer e-mail scanning and to be absolutely sure, the best thing is
to remove just incase disabling the feature isn't enough.)
