techniquefreak Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 I've had mixed experiences with ZA firewall Pro - it all depends on your software setup I think ie. what programs are installed on your computer and what OS.One time when I had installed Kaspersky personal antivirus and installed ZA I could hardly make my computer boot But at best it doesen't conflict with other things and then its a decent product.Why don't you try it on your system and see how it acts ... ?

Railman5 Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 (edited) Wouldn't bother purchasing it. it only gives you more tweeks to fiddle with. the free version does its job and thats to block nasties. I tried the pro version and it LOCKED EVERYTHING DOWN so I couldn't get anything through. Edited July 7, 2005 by Railman5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cancer10 Posted July 7, 2005 Author Share Posted July 7, 2005 Which Security Suit is better?Kaspersky Personal Security SuiteorZone Alarm Security Suite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clint Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 (edited) Agnitum Outpost Firewall is by far the best software FW, but if ZA is a must I would try to find the ZA 4.5.594 version.ZA v5.* is crap, it blocks and mess things up at best.But then, thats only my own opinion.And between Kaspersky and ZA...Kaspersky.

oioldman Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 i use zonealarm pro, never had an issue, easy to install and configure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flupke Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 ZA 4.5 is better than 5.0 but try 6.0, a lot of things have been fixed.Kaspersky provides a even better security but I would go for Anti-Virus Personal and perhaps Anti-Hacker but not the Personal Security Suite.There are trial versions of all these products.

jasyl Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 It has always worked well for me. Btw, you are going to pay for software?! Man just download the trial, get the fix and evalute for more than 15 or 30 days (whatever it is). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man just download the trial, get the fix and evalute for more than 15 or 30 days (whatever it is).<{POST_SNAPBACK}>No talk about warez/cracks here...But I'll agree with the meaning behind it. Sygate and Kerio offer free versions of their software that do the job just as well as ZoneAlarm. I found ZA a bit to "big" for my tastes, but that's just me and I don't mind the simplicity of Sygate's messages (no fancy GUI there, just plain box with OK/NO buttons).

prathapml Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 ZA is the simplest and lightest out there, after considering all angles...Been on ZoneAlarm SecuritySuite 5.5.x since many months now.Its firewall, antivirus, chat security, data securer, etc. etc...All in one very light package. Kicked out Norton AntiVirus since ZA-SS does the job better and faster!No problems with it at all! Best part being, it can be newbie-friendly, and also expert-configurable, at the same time.
