Bearshare problems

Alright i"m running windows XP and i'm having this problem with bearshare. if i use the program it works fine. but then when i try to shut down windows it wont' let me. it tries to end the bearshare process and then it says not responding. this only happens when i use bearshare. i think it has to do something with zonealarm.

anyhelp would be appreciated, thanks

Have you tried manually closing Bearshare before you shutdown Windows? If Bearshare is still running down on the taskbar it might be having problems since people may still be downloading from you. If you manually shutdown bearshare and the problem still exists then try uninstalling bearshare and then reinstall it.
