I could use some help.  Something is causing XP Pro (SP2) to stall occasionally when 
it boots up.  The little "safely remove hardware" sign will show up in my system 
tray (I have USB activated), then the system will just hang.  If I press the restart 
button a few times, startup will continue to Zonealarm and be fine.  This happens 
even if I turn off everything in the msconfig/startup tab.

The system had worked fine for ages until a few weeks ago.  I don't remember installing 
anything that would have caused this problem.

I have run Kaspersky, updated to latest virus files, several times and found no virus. 
 I am perplexed and really could use some good advice on how to fix the problem.

Thank you in advance!
