- "ZoneAlarm joins the adware fight"
- Version reviewed: ZoneAlarm Pro 7.0.462
Along with its effective and easy-to-use firewall and additional security features, this new version of ZoneAlarm Pro revamps the mostly solid antispyware protection introduced in the last release.
ZoneAlarm's wizard makes firewall configuration and maintanence incredibly easy, with a stylish interface and simple slider controls. The app boasts an ultrasecure triple-layer firewall and experts will appreciate the customizing options. The Zones feature allows you to assign different security levels for local networks and the Internet. The program was very good at automatically including our local network settings and auto-detected wireless machines. In all our tests, the firewall held strong against all threats it encountered.
The suite also includes an antivirus scanner, a cookie cleaner, ad and pop-up blockers and new antispwyare tools. Happily, the app offers both real-time protection against malware as well as a scanning engine. In our tests, spyware scans were blisteringly fast and almost always accurate, though some minor traces were left behind. The real-time module could have offered more information from directly within the program on potential threats. Other features include Web site-specific protections, an ID Lock for personal information and a configurable site-blocking content filter. With a tougher firewall and the antispyware tool strengthening, this excellent program just keeps improving.

Version: ZoneAlarm Pro 7.0.462
"Always on "Top" and,...Still the Best of the Best!"
Pros: ZA still offers the best Firewall made.This is not the "Free" version and is not intended to Revert to the "Free" version.All one has to do is either make a purchase or go to the "Free" version site.That should be simple for the simple! the "Free" version is also "TOP"-Of-The-Line,too!Norton,Shot itsself in the foot. and, McAfee is dragging just a bit.But ZA stays on-track.

Version: ZoneAlarm Pro 7.0.462
"Excellent -strong but user friendly"
Pros: Unobtrusive but effective, easy to set up and the spyware function is really good - scanning is fast and accurate.
Comodo is good but nags you to death with constant repeats of questions already answered and supposedly remembered.
Cons: Minor slowing of web functions but nothing to worry about when you consider the protection being provided.

Version: ZoneAlarm Pro 7.0.462
Pros: I really like this version of "Zone Alarm Pro". It loads fast at startup and the firewall is very good. It's the professional version and highly configurable. Disregard the download editors comment on anti-virus scanner. It's a anti-spy scanner ( good trojan detection) and when configured will not bother you with cookies. Full scan takes just under nine minutes on my XPMCE desktop.
Cons: So far, I haven't found any cons. It just does what it's supposed to do and works great.

Version: ZoneAlarm Pro 7.0.462
Pros: It is an outstanding product-customer service HORRIBLE
Cons: I have gone back again and again because I love the product, and quit again and again because of problems. I use the 'freeware' which is just not what I want. If I could find a comparable or better product would NEVER return.
