 Effective but interfering to the point of CONSTANT AGGRAVATION November 18, 2007
ZoneAlarm is good at doing what you ask - keeping the cookies, viruses, pop-ups and other annoyances at bay. I used TrendMicro/PcCillin last year and, though I had it set to block the same things as Zonealarm, when I checked, there were cookies all over, pop-ups which kept popping up -- annoyances that managed to get through. But TrendMicro/PCCillin rarely if ever interfered with speed of downloads(which probably indicates it wasn't working as hard as ZA) and ZoneAlarm CONSTANTLY interferes. I have BroadBand. If the system is scanning or downloading updates, though it says you can keep working, you can't. It's like driving on the interstate during rush hour with road construction for miles and every exit blocked. Maybe with a speedier processor, I wouldn't have these problems. My system is an Athlon Sepron 3000+ 2GHz, with 512MB RAM, and 120GB hard drive -- I'll let the more system knowledgeable of you gauge if that makes a difference in the performance of the software. I will say when I test by turning off ZA, everything goes quick, smooth, and aggravation free.
When I'm ready to purchase my next pc protector, it won't be ZoneAlarm, probably won't be TrendMicro. Of the two, I'd go with Trend, because though it didn't prevent the little annoyances, it did prevent big headaches like viruses, worms, etc, with little interference of process. What I'd like to know is..Is there software that has the benefits of both, doing what it's supposed to do without interfering with what I'm trying to do?
 Worst security software ever September 27, 2007
This program has been a headache since day one. It is miserable to configure, hogs resources, freezes my system, and removes privelages to use other programs. To spite having given every aspect of Adobe full permission, I cannot browse a .pdf file online. I have to save it locally and then open it. Annoying but doable - except that one has to be able to view a .pdf file online to print postage from the USPS website. Then I try to download and install an update - Nope! Not allowed - insufficient privelages as the admin. No joke. My very nice laptop has been all but useless since this piece of trash was installed. I tried to get support but they want me to pay $2.95 a minute to speak to someone, my problems are listed, so I am suppose to spend the next several days emailing with someone? Seriously? This product is trash. Go buy Trend Micro.
Won't play nice with CA Antivirus software, and ZA can't work around it. June 8, 2007
I purchased this software with the intention of loading it up and using since I had internet access and wanted to put in some good firewall protection. I read lots of reviews on this particular software and decided it was worth the money.
I got it and began to load it but then the load aborted because of the CA Antivirus software I already have (came with the internet account.)Hey, I needed something unil I could get what I wanted.
Removing the CA software is much easier said than done (as my wife says, I know just enough about computers to be dangerous, usually more so to the computer itself lol), and ZAISS doesn't help much with the process. Basically it just says "Sorry dude. Can't do it." Then aborts.
I also went to the ZA customer support site to see if I could find out what to do, but couldn't glean a clue from it.
Long story short, I paid for some software that, at this point, I can't even use and unfortuantely, I've lost the reciept so returning it is out of the question. Lesson learned I suppose.
Buyer beware June 1, 2007

I appreciate that there are reviewers here who think this Zone Alarm (ZA) product is the best thing since sliced bread, and I would have agreed with them up to buying this version of the security suite...
I had been using the previous version of the ZA suite with no issues, and was fully satisifed that my PC was protected. The firewall allowed me to access what I wanted to access, and the virus scan picked up several unwanted guests prior to their arrival on my hard drive - all was good - Then I bought and installed this newer version, and that is when my troubles began.
Basically, this product paralysed my PC and stopped me doing anything. I use Windows Live Messenger to communicate with my family around the world, and had had no issue logging on and using this service prior to installing this version of the ZA security suite. However, once I had I could no longer access my messenger account other than by shutting down the ZA firewall (not a good idea) even though all my settings were allowing it to be accessed. Upon doing some research, I found that others had experienced the same problem. To address this ZA technical support (on their forum) suggests one should mannually manipulate and delete certain files on the hard drive - but this is not something I would be expecting to do with a $50 piece of security software! I also found that the ZA product was incompatible with other security software I had installed on my PC. As I trusted ZA more than these other companies, I uninstalled everything except the ZA suite. However, that caused my entire system to basically go-slow, to the point that each click and movement of the mouse took 30 seconds to register. My system was all but frozen, so I attempted to uninstall ZA. However, to do that took nearly 40 minutes.
In the end I finally got this product removed from my PC, downloaded the free ZA firewall from their website and a free virus scan from elsewhere, and my system is back to normal and running better than ever!
Postscript: Oh, I contacted ZA to tell them about this issue, and they said that as I had gone past the 30 day refund window I could not get my money back - fair enough, but that means I now have a copy of this product sitting on my bookcase doing nothing, because I am most certainly not going to sell it on (in good conscience) to anyone else!

ZoneAlarm seems to completely provide protection for my system at a reasonable price
