Version: ZoneAlarm Security Suite 7
"The one I trust and use on all my machines"
Pros: I am a huge fan of this security suite. I usually despise all in one security suites but this one is extremely effective and uses the kaspersky av engine, Can't beat that!
Cons: On my Vista machine I have noticed a couple annoying bugs. Once in awhile the Anti-spyware update will "hang" forever. Another complaint is that on Vista this Suite is not yet fully functional because it is missing some of the tools available on the xp version. I have contacted ZoneAlarm about this and they assure me that they will have all the tools currently available on Vista that they have on XP when the next update is released. If it had all the features of the xp version I would have given it 5 stars. But still better than mcafee or norton.

Version: ZoneAlarm Security Suite 7
Pros: Easy to use interface.Excellent antivirus, which uses kaspersky's engine.The antispyware is best at blocking spyware rather than removing it.The firewall is robust, and the new auto-learning features makes it less annoying.Provides identity protection.It compatible with vista.It regularly updates it's database.
Cons: It does use a lot of memory during startup.Has bugs and conflicts and crashed couple of times on my pc.The antispam is not the best.No antiphishing protection for other browsers.

Version: ZoneAlarm Security Suite 7
Pros: Fine if you don't use P2p file sharing. Easy install. Protects both outgoing and incoming traffic.
Cons: In Vista affects the NAT firewall in p2p applications and hence download speeds even after instructing full access. Had to uninstall it for this reason.
Too many repeat pop up warning messages which never have any further information to help you decide what to do.
I'd recommend Comodo Firewall Pro - far far better.

Version: ZoneAlarm Security Suite 7
"The best security suite out there."
Pros: Very easy to set up.Even a child could manage this software.Nice interface.At first you get lots of warnings but after it gets to know your pc, they level out to just the odd one or two.Very strong antivirus.Lots of features,antispam,parental control,Identity protection, and the best firewall indeed.Catches viruses in an instant. Its not a system hog either,and does not slow down you pc.Would recommend this to everyone.
Cons: Poor antispyware.It just scans for the most well known spyware variants.The antispyware scan takes a few minutes?
but I still give it 5 stars.

Version: ZoneAlarm Security Suite 7
Pros: I use on all my machines and have for several years. It stops ALL attacks including local home networks. After getting a virus that crashed both systems at home on a network (I was running McAfee), I switched to Zone Alarm and haven't looked back.
