Thanks a lot for all the help. But I'm not convinced the URL above doesn't
discusses the same issue. My U3 only gets this error when the ZF is plugged
in 1st. I've never experienced this problem with my U3 until I installed the
ZF. None of my other devices cause this issue with U3. 

StartKey is vaporware, Most of the articles on the net are dated 2008.
Though I've looked, I've never seen a beta of this application. 

Gene, 

The LauncherU3 is nothing more than a fancy portable/U3 'Start' Menu for
your flash drive. I also found it useless until I found Shortcut Creator 4
U3 by SmithtechSoftware
http://usb.smithtech.us/projects/shortcut_creator.php. Prior to this I was
limited to using only U3 applications. With this application you can make
ALL your favorite portable applications (from portable apps.com or
portablefreeware.com) resided on your U3 Launch pad.
