| ZoneAlarm has worked well for me for almost 7 years
Got the free one back in 1999, moved to pro version in 2001. All my home and small business boxes use ZP Pro and have had no issues with it. It even works on my Windows 2003 boxes, even though ZoneAlarm officially doe snot support it.
Pro seems to be the best deal IMHO. Kapersky is better for AV, so their security suite version is not worth it for me. |

Re: ZA free, WOW, thats got me worried NOW,
As I understand it, for most of these leaks to be a problem somebody would need to install a malicious program on my PC. Common sense should be a pretty effective defence.
Out of interest I downloaded & installed CoreForce, which I'd seen mentioned in this forum. It seemed to work pretty well, and to be very comprehensive, although I didn't put it through all the tests because it slowed my laptop down to a crawl. It also took ages to install and nothing worked afterwards, although functionality was restored bit by bit using the learning wizard. |
