Hi Doris, You might like to take a look at the Sygate Tech support site: http://smb.sygate.com/support/documents/pspf/SPFPro_WebHelp/Technical_Su pport.htm You can choose to use the Forums, or have a Rep get back to you by e-mail. I've used the latter on a few occasions, and they've always got back to me within 4 days Tops. What's more to date, issues that I've contacted them about have been sorted. HTH.

AS of tonight, though, it keeps crashing on me both at bootup and when I restart it manually. I was running the latest build of the free version on my widnows 2000 system. Since I was no longer able to start the program, I uninstalled it and reverted to a much older version, the oldest I still had on my system, which appears to have fixed the problem for now. I was just wondering though if anyone else has had this happening. i know of Symantec's takeover of Sygate and their recent announcement to just ditch the program. so I was wondering if this might be connected to the sudden problem i have been experiencing. I would much prefer to run a current version of the firewall and was wondering if there either was a fix for the crashes and also what people recommend as an alternative if or when sygate can no longer be installed on a system. Thanks much for any help! Cheers, Doris -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
