Damn Poll Button wouldn't work.
Right now I'm using ZAPlus. I liked 2.6 better but,
when I went to Cable a few days ago, the True Vector crap screwed up.

I use Agnitum Outpost (www.agnitum.com)

Evilmegaman · 09-12-2002, 07:59 PM

Hmm I don't use one but I would like to and if you know any tips and I am a newbie please tell me. Thanx Oh yeh tom, what do YOU use?

09-12-2002, 08:52 PM

Don't use one. I'm just careful what i run. Firewalls are simply resource hogs.

09-12-2002, 08:53 PM

oh, btw... if i was gonna run a firewall, it wouldn't be software..... i'm talking Sisqo hard routers!!! LOL

I use the one that comes with Windows XP. I should probably get a better one, but wouldn't know where to start to pick one.

Hova · 09-12-2002, 09:42 PM

A buggy norton. Its half installed, and whatnot. I can't get it off my comp.

Music Pirate · 09-12-2002, 11:32 PM

I am one of the few people it seems that like Norton Internet Security. No problems here have been using it for over year now....

Im using ZoneAlarm Pro 2.6.362, and i wonder if theres any better version of za pro than 2.6.362

gbread49 · 09-13-2002, 07:03 AM

I've been using ZoneAlarm (Free version) for over a year now and have never had any problems with it.

BTW: For those that are not aware, there is a new version out, version 3.1.291........ A new Interface and several new features have been added.

Check it out HERE

Scroll to the bottom of the page for the Free version....

If you do decide to upgrade BE SURE to read the instructions on how to properly upgrade. Very important!

Well technically, yes

It costs something like $20 less than Pro, I think.

Same interface and so on, only difference between the two is Plus doesn't contain the in-built ad/cookie blockers and is less of a resource hog, I much prefer it over pro

I'm using the older ZoneAlarm Pro 2.6.362 at the mo, ZAPlus kept killing my http surfing for some reason...

:computer:
Direct download to ZoneAlarm Plus here.
