19935 2001-10-03 09:37:00 hi,

regarding a reply about personal firewalls you made in a recent post: You mentioned turning off the Zonealarm startup (splash) screen when it loads. How would I go about doing this?

Cheers for the help.

19937 2001-10-03 12:00:00 Go to the folder, where you have the startup link for zonealarm.
If you run ZA at startup it should be found in
Windows\All Users\Startmenu\Programs\Startup.

Or do a start find for file, name: zonealarm (no extension). This should
find all the existing shortcuts. Cannot be wrong if you change the path in
all shortcuts. You can do it right there in the window with the search
results.

Rightclick on the link, choose properties and change the program path as
follows ( Maybe best to just leave the existing program path as it is, and
just add the -nopopup -nosplash, as your path might vary, depending on
installation).

Example:
C:\Program Files\ZoneLabs\ZoneAlarm\zonealarm.exe -nopopup -nosplash
Or write it like that:
'C:\Program Files\ZoneLabs\ZoneAlarm\zonealarm.exe' -nopopup -nosplash

Make sure there is a free space after exe or ' and after nopopup.

thanks go to heaps of regulars at news.grc.com
