First of all, I downloaded ZA from an 'old versions' site and chose 5.5.094 which I had used for quite some time in the past and it was free. So I thought it was free & ok to choose that one as none of them said 'pro'. When the install went thro' it turned out to be ZA pro 5.5.094 and a 15 day trial.
Don't think I can upgrade to the latest version as it won't support Win. ME.

How & where can I get the setup installer for version 5.5.094 free??

That little blinking thing - it is not the red and green bars you see showing activity, it is like a little red beacon that blinks on the right side of the ZA icon. Hope I have explained this ok.


I went to prog. ctrl and moved the slider to 'lo' and these are the responses to the update request.

Zenobia: Sorry, I don't understand 'get the updates manually'. In spybot, I click 'check for updates' - is this not checking manually?

Would dearly love to resolve this mess as I will be going away on Monday.
Thanks loads.
