True Vector Service event 5003

I do not have ZoneAlarm installed, and I'm puzzled why Application Event
Viewer shows a True Vector Service event 5003 occurring approx every second.

msconfig does not show True Vector as a service available, nor do I see it
as a Startup item, and I don't find ZoneAlarm or True Vector in the Registry
using regedit.

Any thoughts would be most appreciated.

From a previous post:

I checked with the folks at work that handle the Cisco VPN client and
confirmed that the Cisco VPN client and Zone Alarm share a common set of
files. We think that I either had a faulty install or an upgrade only
partially occured on my system. According to my coworkers, the VPN client is
only supposed to use the files not start the TrueVector Service.

The plan of attack was to uninstall the existing VPN client and put a newer
version down on the box. Removing the old client removed, among other
things, 3 files (i.e VSINIT.DLL, VSDATA.DLL and VSDATANT.SYS) file from the
System32 folder and after a reboot my system no longer showed any TrueVector
Service errors at boot time. I then cleaned up my registry a bit, cleaned up
a few other areas and reinstalled a newer Cisco VPN client. The new 4.6 VPN
client is working fine and no error messages.

Yep.
Making an adjustment to the settings on my Cisco VPN client made all those
thousands of 5003s go away and stay away. No uninstall/reinstall required. :)
