-Two-way Firewall
-Antivirus/Antispyware
-Antiphishing

"heavy on computer, difficult to remove"
Version: ZoneAlarm Pro Antivirus + Firewall 10.2.057
Pros
A known brand name for personal FW. the interface is simple and easy to use, the FW is powerfull still.
Cons
I know zone alarm as a PC firewall, a good FW for personal computers. I installed this product to test it on my personal Dell laptop with i5 processor. the installation was easy, but, updating the antivirus was overkill, more than 100 mb of data download, it took an hour through my cable connection, it seems that the zone alarm def server was not performing well. i noticed slow performance on my PC, difficulties to connect to public wifi zone, i had to turn zonealarm off in order to connect, and slow internet browsing. after one week, I decided to remove, it, when the nightmare started, you can't simply uninstall it, it gives you error message. After searching the forums, tried with several ways including safe mode, no hope, it does not leave your PC!! finally, I found a discussion on the zone alaram forum, there is a small exec file you need to donwload in order to remove the application... finally I made it and no more zone alarm on my PC
Summary
I think zonealarm is no more like before, and seriously, who needs a personal firewall on his PC if you have a microsoft FW by default. the AV is new, I tested it on fake virus it quarantined it, while other AV products removed it. it slows down the PC, and needs knowledge when you manage the FW.
I don't recommend it for home users. -
"~ YOU'RE FOREWARNED ~"
Version: ZoneAlarm Pro Antivirus + Firewall 2012
Pros
Not a thing. Nothing. It ruined the reliability of the old ZoneAlarm
Cons
You better seriously consider reviewing all the reviews here before downloading this mess. Crashed (2) computers. Computer would constantly freeze up. Both computers took over 7 minutes to start up after installing. I went to uninstall it, only to find out that still, both computers now take 5+ minutes to start up.
Summary
This piece of software has destroyed the reliability of what use to be my favorite firewall. It is a resource hog that you have no control over. And something is v-e-r-y fishy about this new suite. Now, both my computers have never been the same after installing, and quickly uninstalling.
DON'T DO IT. Save yourself the headache that I and countless other people now have to endure. -
"great software"
Version: ZoneAlarm Pro Antivirus + Firewall 2012
Pros
its free but harsh works but to what end
Cons
ok first im no novice to the software world i had been useing avast for over ten years and like others i had noticed different things going on with my computer site blocking was the least of it i have a dell i560 with 4 gigs of memory its not slow by any means but with avast installed it blocked some of my updates from microsoft and as soon as i uninstalled it they installed on reboot so made me wonder just what other updates had been blocked and avast itself updates were less than perfect so i made the move to zonealarm and im glad i did it doesnt get in the way unless its needed it works great and has stoped many invasions on my computer and works smoothly doing so check point great job keep up the great work you are doing we all need realy good security software and this is one of the best i have seen in awhile thanks again check point.
Summary
solid antivirus +firwall work very smoothly together all around great software and its time for a trustworthy company to lead the way zone alarm has been a name for years and under the new logo makes it even better kicks ass bottom line.
i also have this software on my toshiba l455laptop it works great there as well.

"I gave up on ZoneAlarm Antivirus"
Version: ZoneAlarm Pro Antivirus + Firewall 2012
Pros
I guess that the firewall is still OK.
Cons
Cannot exist with other network security products. Killed SSH tunneling.
Summary
I have been using ZoneAlarm for more years than I can remember because of the easy configurablity. I use Norton Internet Security(with the firewall turned off) for my antivirus protection. It has saved my bacon on multiple occasions. When I upgraded to ZoneAlarm Antivirus, I found out that I could no longer use SSH tunneling. When I contacted customer support, ZoneAlarm's tech said that ZoneAlarm categorically cannot co-exist with Norton. Too bad. I have no experience with the reliability of ZoneAlarm as an antivirus product, so it had to go.
I forgot to mention. I must have SSH tunneling to connect to my workplace.

"GREAT, EASY TO INSTALL, EASY TO USE"
Version: ZoneAlarm Pro Antivirus + Firewall 2012
Pros
VERY EASY TO INSTALL, SIMPLE AND STRAIGHT FORWARD TO USE. I FOUND IT VERY STRAIGHT FORWARD, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE A NOVICE. WITH THE ANTI-VIRUS INCLUDED IT PERFORMS TO A VERY HIGH STANDARD
Cons
I HAVE NOT COME ACROSS ANY
Summary
IF YOU ARE A NOVICE IT IS EASY TO USE. I WOULD SUGGEST AFTER USING IT I WOULD BUY IT, BUT THEIR AGAIN IF YOU CAN NOT AFFORD TO, THEN THE FREE ONE IS STILL GREAT TO USE. THIS IS GREAT FOR THE NOVICE AND THE COMPUTER SAV.

"Better than ever!"
Version: ZoneAlarm Pro Antivirus + Firewall 2012
Pros
Powerfull Firewall
Firewall + AV Engine = Win!
All the ZoneAlarm Epicness
New services since 7.1 (I guess)Cons
Too heavy for Vista/7 on requirements
Too slow on updates...
Not as groundbraking as Avast or AVG
Most Hated GUI!!!!Summary
Still rough but gives more defence. Recomended for anyone who wants 360 deg. defence. For more ground-breaking security or AV-only solutions, don-t look here.
