I just installed Zorin and when I log in there is a pop up that asks if I want to upgrade to Ubuntu 11.04. My question is should I upgrade or leave Zorin alone?

No, don't try the Ubuntu upgrade, it could adversely affect your system. See post on http://zoringroup.com/blog/

You should NOT upgrade, this may fail your system. Install Zorin OS 5 later on when available.

Aamir is exactly right. However, you want to do the updates, just don't do the UPGRADE. If you want to continue with Zorin OS 4 before later installing version 5, go to System, Administration, Update Manager and at the bottom left of the screen is a Settings box. Click it and at the bottom of the next screen is a drop down box where you can click and select Never for upgrades. That will take care of the upgrade problem and will still allow you to do regular important updates to your system without any problems.

I also went on this bug and upgraded to 11.04. But I had been with me at Zorin information the website, so I had dropped and reinstall.
