Windows 7: Zone Alarm Extreme Security beta good

I've been beta testing version 9.0.108.000 available now and it's the first one that hasn't given me any issues on 7. Previously, I had HDD issues and Winamp would not start properly until a complete uninstall of ZA. Those issues are fixed and system is running smooth with little or no noticable slowdowns.



You have to setup a free account to get it. Here:

If you install, disable the Windows Firewall and Windows Defender services. If you do not use the antivirus/antispyware feature of ZA, keep Windows Defender enabled.

Does it not work well with those? I would prefer to use both.

Actually, if you leave both Windows Firewall and Defender auto and running, there are no conflicts and it's cool. You know though, always the advice is to run one antivirus or firewall app at a time, so that's why I say. But ya, no problems running all 3, ZA-WF-WD all together.

Just curious. Too lazy to try it though, so not now. Maybe another time.
