Cygwin Load Times and ZoneAlarm (not X)

         Has anyone else experienced long load times for bash/cygwin.bat 
when running ZoneAlarm Security Suite?  And if so, do you have any ideas 
how to speed it up?  With ZoneAlarm shut down, I get a bash prompt in 
under 2 seconds. With ZoneAlarm running, it takes over a full minute.

 	I believe it is the "On-Access" virus scanning.  Are other virus 
scanners as bad?  What software do people recommend for firewall and virus 
protection to use with cygwin?
