Rating: Summary: Great product! Review: Easy to install, easy to use, and a real eye-opener -- I knew my cable ISP connection was vulnerable, but I had no idea how bad it was until I ran ZA Pro -- this program exposed (and blocked) 5 intrusion attempts in the first week! Anyone who has a cable or DSL connection should have this.

Rating: Summary: Some problems Review: I bought this product since of all the personal firewall products out there, it seemed to get the best review.My initial experience with it was good, although a reviewer in CPU magazine had warned that it could conflict with Norton Anti-Virus. For a couple of days I had no problems. The interface is easy and intuitive and the configuration screens for selecting what you want blocked and filtered are easy to figure out and work your way thru. So far so good. Then I installed a couple of small, new programs. These were Fail-Safe Technologies Guard IE program, a great little program which prevents websites from opening up all those annoying extra windows and advertisements in your browser--including something called embedded drop-down windows--and everything went downhill from there. The second program was Intel's Netboost Netsonic web-caching program, which speeds up the loading of web pages by caching previously used graphics and text, and only loading the elements that have changed. This is especially useful if you're on a slow dial-up collection, and the program works very well for that. Unfortunately, everything went downhill from there, to the point where ZoneAlarm had everything locked down so thoroughly that I couldn't access the web at all. Furthermore, even after de-installing both these programs, I still could not access any website, or get email from my dial-up Earthlink account. I don't know which of the two programs was causing the problem with ZoneAlarm, or whether it was both, but anyway, obviously there was some sort of conflict. Since then I've deinstalled and restalled ZoneAlarm, and although that did help quite a bit, occasionally I'll fire up my browser and I won't able to access any websites, even though, as far as I can see, nothing has changed in the configuration. I'm still trying to troubleshoot these problems, so if I figure it out, I'll post another message here. In the meantime, I would have to say my initial enthusiasm for the product is somewhat dampened.
Rating: Summary: DSL Shouldn't Be Sold Without ZoneAlarm Review: I didn't realize just how much my computer was sending to the 'net through its DSL connection until I got ZoneAlarm. Wow! When these DSL guys say the connection is "always on," they aren't kidding. I wouldn't use a computer without ZoneAlarm. This firewall catches stuff going in and out of your computer, better than others that just look for inbound activity. I've learned my lesson. I'm using ZoneAlarm.

Rating: Summary: Well Well Review: Is a great software easy to use more explicit than Black Ice, this porgrma don't have the software conflicts how have Norton (iterrupt other aplications) and Mcafee (hard to uninstall) you can block the things you need to block and that make the progam very flexive or you can use the default configurations (High, Medium, etc..) but i only give to the program 4 stars because wen i check the program vulnerability i see the program permit the conection with horse programs well if you have a good AV you can use this firewall i have this combination a good AV (Norton) with WinXP (wirwall On) and the ZoneAlarm turned On and i don't have problems with my computer, anyway if you don't have WinXp use the ZoneAlarm with a good AV and have the last with the Dat files and you have a great security on you computer
Rating: Summary: Great security Review: Not only does ZoneAlarm Pro protect my connection, it's also taught me a lot about how hackers, programs and viruses put me at risk. Easy-to-use and informative.
Rating: Summary: ZoneAlarm Pro Review: This is a great firewall product. Protects both incoming and outgoing... It includes optional password protection, which the free version does not. This is one area you do not want to risk getting into trouble with! Would highly recommend.
Rating: Summary: Great Product Review: This is a great product - esp. once you upgrade to the latest version (free, once you install the one Amazon sends you). My initial review wasn't that good - as I had problems in the very beginning - and I've been trying for a month to get this revised review posted ;-) Again - excellent product.
