Hi, When I installed SP2 the Sygate firewall I was using, worked perfectly.
Then they came out with an upgrade, and it has caused all kinds of problems.
It caused the computer to crash, and go into a continuos loop of trying to
reboot. You could not boot into safe mode, or last best or anything. After
physically unplugging the power. finally got the computer into safe mode,
and from there into restore. Then I could get into the control panel and
remove the Sygate program.
Now the computer is working fine again. Anyway, does anyone have a clue as
to what is wrong with the new upgrade of Sygate? I have used the program
for several years and would like to use it still, but, not with the problems
it caused. Jack
 
I think your problem may be directly related to your machine. I have
installed the latest version without problems.

I did have a problem on both my machines in trying to install the latest
build over the previous build which was strange as I had installed other
updates 'over' previously without problems. I had to completely uninstall
Sygate then install the latest build and all was well. Incidentally I had
to uninstall the previous build on both machines before the latest build
would install.

Jack:

I am running Sygate PF build 2170 along with SP2's Windows Firewall without
problems on a clean install of XP, SP2, and Sygate.
