Re: Unexplained Delay Launching Applications

Sorry that didn't work for you.
I saw in another post that you log in as a limited user. If you log in as an
admin, does the same delay occur? When you uninstalled ZA, were you logged
in as admin?

Hi, SC Tom. Thanks for your suggestion. I had indeed taken the lazy
route
on the last upgrade -- unusual for me. Re-installing ZASS clean produced
no
joy, however; the symptoms still remain. BTW, one other thing I've
noticed
might be meaningful to you: When this problem is occurring, the first
symptom is often that a right click on the ZASS icon in the taskbar (down
by
the clock) produces the same sort of lock-up and 60 s delay before
allowing
me to engage or disengage Internet Lock. (See also my reply elsewhere
that
the delay is apparently NOT caused by a virus scan.) -- JCW

Here's what happened to me-
I was having the same problem; programs delayed in opening, sometimes as
long as 60 seconds, and, like yours, only the first instance after
booting
up. The fix for me was to uninstall ZASS, reboot, then do a clean
install. I
had done an upgrade install earlier, but didn't associate it with that
until
I was in the ZA forums and saw a similar problem. After the clean
install,
all was well in PC land again.

HTH,
SC Tom
