Thumbnail problems in Win2k

The problem I have that my Win2k won't display thumbnails anymore, or rather, it won't create or modify the thumbnail files (it displays thumbnails of pics that were there already perfectly, but won't add new ones, and if I delete the thumbnails file it doesn't create another).
I just installed Zone Alarm Security Suite, could it have something to do with it?

Is that when it stopped working, just after ZA was installed? Disable ZA to check. Did you look at the event viewer? Are you getting an error message? Did you search the error message on google?

Yes. Well, and after I installed Quake 4. Disabling ZA doesn't seem to do anything. Not getting any error messages. Oh, and I just noticed that it does load and display thumbs. Some at least. Seemingly random, jpg and png alike. http://i2.tinypic.com/1zvtmk3.jpg But if I delete the thumbnail file, it doesn't reload immediately.
