=====================================================
From: "Rich Gauszka" <gauszka@hotmail.com>

It looks like it's related to the srescan service that Zonelabs added to 6.5.*


http://forum.zonelabs.org/zonelabs/board/message?board.id=gen&message.id=36422

In installing Roxio media creator suite 8, it did not install properly. On
analysis I found the this was because it could not write required information
in some registry keys (some of its essential services failed to be installed).
Only after a '/clean' install of ZA free 6.5.731 was I able to install EMC8
successfully. Just shutting down ZA is insufficient, it seems to be ZA's
srescan service that causes the problem and that does not get unloaded when you
just shut down ZA, even if you set 'don't load ZA at startup' and reboot,
srescan is apparently loaded (it shows in device manager as installed).
Reinstalling ZA after installing EMC8 works fine.
