i have gotten myself in a big mess and need help if possible.
problem started when my ca/ez armor security suite was to expire...i thought i would load the zone alarm program...not sure what i did but now i cannot reload either program.
i get three messages:
1) validation failed for c:docume~\lonnie~1\locals~1\temp\010507123713\vsdata.dll
2) set up unable to log into truevector service. install cannot continue without logging into the trurevector service. please use the service manager to shutdown the truevector service & then restart install program
3) something about memory at x0x00000007
needless to say..nothing works...will anyone help me? thanks.
eTrust EZ Armor used to use a re-branded and re-named ZoneAlarm firewall so that could be your problem. You'd need to attempt to uninstall both eTrust EZ Armor and ZoneAlarm in order to get a "clean" install.
Check the Add/Remove screen first (Start Menu > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs) and remove the ZoneAlarm and CA products if possible, also check your systems date and time to make sure they are correct (Start Menu > Control Panel > Date and Time)
If the date is correct and you cannot remove ZA then goto Start > Run > type
services.msc
Press OK then locate this in the service list
TrueVector Internet Monitor
if found double click it to open the properties screen (or right click and choose Properties)
On the StartUp type change it to : Disabled
On the Service Status , Click Stop
Then press Apply and OK
(The above may generate Access Denied messages but it is suggesting you stop the service in your post so its worth a try)
Run Ccleaner to remove the contents of the Temp folders then reboot and try to install ZA again,
There's also instructions here for manually removing Zone Alarm if needed
thanks for the information...i ended up using the manual process...i was able to re-install my ca / ez armor suite, that is except for the anti-virus portion...i will keep working on that issue...for now, i have installed avast anti-virus.
thanks again your assistance...it was grately appreciated.
if you cannot find the issue then consider contacting CA if the problem continues, depending on where your located you should be able to get help using their web support feature so that maybe easier
