    Zonealarm and utorrent

    vsmon.exe - part of zonealarm goes upto about 70% cpu usage when a torrent is actively downloading.

    Has anyone worked out a way around this?

    I am a basic user so simple solutions necessary plz!

              zone alarm is known to be a resource hog ... i swapped to AVG after i was having the same problem with zone alarm

                  You swapped one resource hog for another? Good call.

                      at least AVG didn't give me any problems compared to zonealarm and i hardly notice AVG in the background

                          I had problems with vsmon.exe before. do a search on Google and that should bring up some people that have solved that issue. Personally tho, I'm quite happy with Windows Firewall these days and don't even bother with 3rd party ones. (see other thread)

                              why use zonealarm when you or Os provides the default one ?
