Sure. Try running the programs I suggested to see what a good job
ZoneAlarm has done for you blocking spyware.
I guarantee you that you will be amazed at how much spyware you have on
your machine if you rely on ZoneAlarm only.

Even "good" software can cause some interesting, evil conflicts with things
like sound & video drivers. It's one reason why you shouldn't continually
try all sorts of stuff. When these conflicts occur, it's enough to drive you
nuts, especially since uninstall routines cannot reverse the problem much of
the time.
