The door/frame can fail with the lock being in perfect condition.

But as you stated,

Works fine. Microsoft is the problem. Get linux. Industrial strength firewall, easy easy to configure - most DSL transceivers (modems) have this firewall installed (IP Tables). Tivo works real good too, right? Linux inside!!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20777302 Fri, 11 Jul 2008 19:27:36 EDT Re: People still use this? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20771533 B : The early versions are STILL great. I continue to use ZoneAlarm Free 2.6.362 all day, every day, on multiple XP computers. Never a problem. Different software, service packs, different VPNs, sleeping laptops, roaming networks; it just works.

I run 2 software-based firewalls (one is ZA), plus the router and a good anti-virus program that is set to scan my full system daily. You can never be too careful using the Internet. View it as a big door to a room containing your most valuable possessions. Put good locks + multiple deadbolts on it. Then keep in mind that you're still not safe. :-) ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20769904 Thu, 10 Jul 2008 13:02:17 EDT Re: People still use this? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20768907 spewak : Well, yes. I do anyhow. It did prevent me from getting online until I turned off the firewall and was able to go to the website and promptly download the updated version.
Familiarity breeds contempt I guess.

I said outloud just now. But apparently, yep. I used to use it back when I was on Win '98 and it was light and very effective but from what I hear it's pretty bloated now. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20768781 Thu, 10 Jul 2008 09:05:50 EDT People still use this? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20768714 Matt : People still use ZA? Wow. The early versions were great, but it quickly became bloated, and like the Norton/Symantec products, caused more problems than it prevented.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20768714 Thu, 10 Jul 2008 08:41:04 EDT
