Summary: Best of the Suites
Comment: I started with PCTools many years ago, then moved to Norton (who bought out PCTools) but when I realized it was bringing my system to a crawl about 6 years ago, took the Editor's Choice of ZoneAlarm and haven't looked back. Regarding the one star ratings here, all I can say is that whenever there is either a new operating system or service pack or conflicts with new programs, yes, there's going to be a bump in the road, but ZoneLabs has ALWAYS made things right and done so quickly. I am running Vista SP1 right now and I was having problems from some source, so I ran RegCure and then downloaded a Beta version of ZoneAlarm's newest version and everything is fast and smooth. I can honestly say that with ZoneAlarm Internet Suite have NEVER suffered a single virus, trojan horse or spyware problems - ever. This is a great program and a great company.

Summary: Good Product Now Gone Bad
Comment: ZoneAlarm used to be an outstanding product now it's just horrible. Boot/shutdown times can hit the 7-10 minute range if you have certain other software installed on your computer. What other software - every day software like Nero Burning ROM and a variety of others.

Spend some time searching the ZoneAlarm user forums reading about the boot/shutdown issues and will find that many other applications you may already have on your computer don't sit well with ZoneAlarm causing ZA to be extremely slow.

Normal every day software causes ZoneAlarm to be slow? Doesn't sound right but it's not a joke. This formerly great product is now completely down the tubes. The ZoneAlarm forum moderators post their canned responses to this issue and Tech Support recommends you uninstall the offending normal every day software or make registry tweaks to improve performance.

Bottom line: ZoneAlarm is no longer a good product. Choose something else like Kaspersky, Norton, or McAfee.

Summary: Zone Alarm; Once a great program, now not so good.
Comment: Having used Zone Alarm since it was owned by a small company in San Francisco over 4 years ago I have seen the product decrease in it's ability to function severely over the years. Apparently ever since an Israeli corporation took over things started to change. Even for free I would run, not walk away from Zone Alarm ! I switched to Kapersky. Hope my input helps

Customer Rating:
Summary: Not for Windows Vista!!
Comment: I had this on my Windows Vista Ultimate and it makes everything slow on my dual core processor. Not only this it made my computer not able too connect to the internet! DO NOT USE Zone Alarm for Windows Vista at all!

There are other Free Programs much better than Zone Alarm. I Use AVG 8.0 now and its Much better!

Summary: Falling from the top
Comment: I have been a long time customer of ZoneLAbs and have ALWAYS depended on the quality and intuitive UI of the firewall.

Unfortunately, the version 7.xxx 3-license security suite has let me down and moved me away from the product (I hate paying for bad software).

My experience reflects an easy install and configuration, just as in previous versions. I installed a license on Windows 2000 Workstation, on XP Media Center Edition, and Vista Business.

The Windows 2000 had been with ZA for YEARS. After a couple of months, I was suddenly unable to get email from my ISP. I shut down ZA and no problem. I un-installed and cleaned out the ZA per tech. support help and re-installed. Everything worked well for about 2 weeks and then it began blocking applications randomly (except ping!). I replaced it with Symantec and it seems to be doing well.

The Vista worked as expected and had no problems, however I wiped it out and installed the 64-bit SP1 version (so I could actually USE the 4GB RAM installed). ZA has dropped the ball with the 64-bit world. It seems they are getting out of the business (after all, all CPUs are 64-bit now, the system vendors will catch up soon and install the 64 bit OS's). I replaced ZA with Norton (granted, a 32-bit version) and I have no problems.

The media center IS a nightmare. Yesterday, it suddenly stopped letting ANY traffic through (except ping!). No email, no Internet, no web-enabled applications! I dutifully un-installed and tried to re-install, got the infamous (and quite common) "You do not have access to make the required system configuration". This has been around for several versions and they have not bothered to fix it ( I tried logged in AS administrator, and as an account in the Admiinistrator group). I wiped the registry and the file system, and it just won't let me re-install. Now I am shopping for virus scanning software!

An interesting side note: while I was trying to determine why the firewall was not allowing traffic out, I noticed that the license expiration was in 158 days (roughly 8 months after initial installation!). Seems they can't count either!

Bottom line, it appears that CheckPoint has ridden the cash cow down and doesn't seem to have the testing resources or inclination to keep the product up to the old ZA quality levels.

I don't have time to spend trying to get the one piece of software that you MUST have to install and stay working correctly. I have to say goodbye to ZA.
