ZA is good allright, but the vsmon.exe service that keeps running in ZA has the tendency to freeze sometimes. Not sure about it, but I know a couple of fellows who faced exactly the same problem with vsmon.
Sygate is the best according to me. One advantage Sygate has over ZA is Sygate detects port scanning while ZA does not.

Zonealarm for me
Well what if the question is edited as, "Which is the best firewall avalable for free?" Digit Fast track says that Zone Alarm is not free.
yes Zonealarm is best in all...
well Windows firewall is the fastest but not the best but it still suffice for home use.Official Techie said:
Duh .. That article sucks .. It doesnt even mention Jetico ...
Comodo Firewall is great! Try it out

Yes, I too want to know free Firewall software available which is lite...ZA makes my computer sluggish...
And also what all kinds of firewall is there. Even I wants a very basic and lite one.dabster said:
Go for Sunbelt Kerio Firewall...It is available for free download. Just google.
take a look at this thread:

Zone Alarm is the best!!!!!!!!
Zone Alarm firewall is not compatible with Avast! Antivirus. Go for Sunbelt Kerio firewall. It is too good.

i think i am inclined to disagree. could run avast+za fw comfortably.

I have Avast! antivirus installed in my system. I did get warning message from Zone Alarm Firewall after its installation. One can bypass this warning & continue, but warning messages cannot be ignored-to be in safer side.

I also have been using Zone Alarm Firewall with Avast AV for more than 2 years without any problem but recently the combination started showing error messages and I have changed to ZA + AVG Free both at home and in the office

these/such warnings are there to inform u of any changes being made to ur system, and sure enuff ANY sw on its installation or on its update will make changes to the registry, etc. za is informing u about it. click 'ok' also tick 'always' and create a rule for ur za fw. in future it will bother u only with new alarms

At the time of installation, there is a message saying that there is some compatibility issue with ZA and Avast which they are trying to sort out.
@anandk
I am not talking about the warnings from ZA but probable incompatibility between the two.

Zone alarm id da best...

strange, ttbomk, there r no known compatibilty issues btwn za & avast. in fact the coexistence of those two is stunning ! on my desktop i have zass and avast running peacefully ! make sure u r using the latest versions of both.
nevertheless then don't install the network shield. select custom install (in avast) and un-click network shield. this network shield acts as a partial software firewall and could perhaps b causing conflicts with za.

ZoneAlarm Pro version:6.0.631.002 just rocks.....but sometime clashes with s/w dat i like so i have to turn it off.

Not only the warning message, it slowed down booting. It was same in my home and office machines which began to take 3 minutes and more to boot. If you still find it surprising, pl visit-

I was not saying there is anything wrong with ZA which I have been using for years and still use. I just changed the AV to AVG Free. Avast also worked fine for years until recentlly when the said problem cropped up.

Kerio is not good, crashed my disk once. ZA is good.
yes ZOne Alarm but it takezz so much SOurce...dud...ur system will be slow ???
