Lars is your version
the prof version or the basic, free, version?

I cannot access
Quotes Plus and other sites with the basic version without disabling zone
alarm.

V2.x gave me a
choice of permitting access to a site, V3 does not give me this
choice.

Langa's free (usefull !) list : 1) 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 <A
href="http://www.zonelabs.com";>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 <A
href="mailto:ZA@xxxxxxxxx";>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.
