So, now I wonder WHY - what is it about ZoneAlarm and/or other firewall software that might cause this degredation in performance of DC? I suggest that certain software that is supposed to be looking for viral particles is hindered by the nature of many Pick filestructures. It would not be uncommon in Pick to have files that are hundreds of megabytes large. If, each time one of these files *changes* that triggers a police-program to re-check it to see if it now contains a virus .... that could be a major source of slowness. That is why you should never have policing programs checking any system that has PICK type files on it. Which is why they say to run a Pick server seperately from your external-web-email-type server. If the viral programs at stopped at the external source there is no way, externally, that they can get to the server that is running the Pick-type system. Then you just need in install police programs on each internal PC and you're set. More or less.
