Zone Alarm has been great! Very happy with it . I must mention I have Zone Alarm Security Suite and had to shut off the email junk mail filter because it's buggy and no known fix.

QUOTE (Mark Poppen @ Jun 24 2008, 07:35 PM)  I use AVAST! antivirus. It also has a firewall built in.. I'm VERY satisfied with the way AVAST! works.. Its funny. My security suite is up for renewal (or out of date) in Dec this year. I have been looking around for a good suite. Sorry currently using BitDefender, which I don't like. I have to turn off to access certain things, google earth and thunderbird e-mail for examples. This is with rules set-up for these programs. Anyway, I looked at Avast! and they are coming back with a good price for 3 years coverage (€57). I was thinking of going to Kaspersky, but at least I have a while to weigh up the options. -------------------- Finally squeeezin!!!!

You tried putting Comodo on learn?
I never have any of those problems. You should have a scan, might be malware trying to connect online. |

This thread could not have come at a better time because I just received my new computer with Vista Ultimate 64-bit and Zone Alarm does not work on it.
Thanks to Mark, I instantly downloaded Avast! So far so great! -------------------- |

Works better and is more stable than ALL my previous windows versions together. -------------------- |
