"I thought Win 2K doesn't use Explorer, am I wrong?"

win2000 does have explorer.

"By default, it is not possible to stop a process by using Ctl-Alt-Del in W2K. One must use the KILL command line utility available with the Windows NT 4.0 Resource Kit. NOTE: this does not ship with Windows 2000 and must be purchased separately, contact Microsoft for the details."

right and wrong. <g> there is no ctrl-alt-del, but by right-clicking on taskbar i am able to open 'task manager', which shows me every single running process, and also gives me the ability to end any of them. the KILL command is something that i have yet to learn about.

"If you are using the Windows 2000 operating system, there are some default Processes which may prompt for access to the Internet....

The Services and Controller App is necessary in order for you to surf the web."

i allow connect but do not allow server.

"Generic host process for win32"

i allow connect but do not allow server.

the other processes they mentioned are not showing in my za programs page.

even though za support did not answer your questions very well, i found their email to be pretty interesting and it's helped me to learn a little bit more about win2000.

thanks for posting

:)
