I have one of the Free versions that ZoneAlarm just gave away.

Are there any know issues or incompatibilities with this software now?

I know it didn't play nice with VISTA, so I dumped it in favorer of Online Anchor.. which worked great and I loved.. but OA is not Win7 compatible, so I'm forced to use Windows firewall, which isn't a major concern as I also use a Modem/Router with firewall, so it like wearing my pants with both belt and suspenders.. but it lets me sleep well at night.

Any feedback will be appreciated.

Thanks,
CS

Never used it; use Microsoft Security Essentials. Haven't heard or read anything bad at this point, so the best I can say is give it a try, and post back and let other members know how it worked out. Good luck. :)

Tried Comodo before.. Extremely intrusive and I hated it.. Online Armour is MUCH better... best I've ever used.. too bad it wasn't Win 7 compatible.. and they had no time frame posted for when it would be.. But I haven't looked recently... Hmmm... Hold.. Right Back....

Well... What do you know.... They Released it YESTERDAY >
The Best Personal Firewall Online Armor

I guess I forget about ZoneAlarm now!

I STRONGLY recommend you try Online Armor > Best Firewall Software - Stops Hackers, Malware, Viruses, Keylogger & Online Banking Protection - Online Armor

I'll post if there any issues.. but I don't expect any.

Thanks All
