I have the latest version of Zone Alarm and do not have any problem with
it.

New Free ZoneAlarm
On Tuesday, Zone Labs released ZoneAlarm 3.1. If you're a ZoneAlarm
user, you should soon get an update notice (the notifications are
staggered over time to prevent everyone from trying to download the
new
code at once.) You also can grab the code manually by going to
http://www.zonelabs.com .
In addition, ZoneAlarm Pro was recently updated to version 3.0.133.
Similarly, you can update automatically via the built-in update/reminder
agent, or by visiting the above site and manually grabbing a copy.
The Pro upgrade is only a little different from the previous version,
but the free version is a major update, and already is generating some
strong--- and so far, mostly negative--- reader comments: stability
problems, resource issues, and more.
But the numbers of reports I've gotten so far is too small to serve
as a
basis for a reliable conclusion. Plus, it's a fact of human nature
that
far more people take the time to write when they're angry about a
product than when they're happy with one. (I guess we all tend to
complain more than praise. <g>)
But by the time you read this newsletter, enough people should have
used
the new version of ZoneAlarm that we can begin to draw meaningful
conclusions.
Once you've tried the new version, please drop a short note to
ZA@xxxxxxxxx and tell me if your
experience was good, bad, or neutral.
What did you like or not like about the new version? Will you keep
using
it?
I'll gather the replies, and present them soon in an upcoming issue.
