Yes, there are problems with ZA for many users.
You can click the "search" button above (near the title bar of this page) and digit "zone alarm" for a full view of all posted questions about it.

Bye. :)

Also check here - http://www.avast.com/eng/webshield_issues.html

But why would you want to use a very old version of ZA, a new version has just been released?

I have installed Avast just today, on PC I have ZA 5.1.011.000  and no problem occurred...at installing appearing message regarding problem with privacy settings of ZA, suggesting disable this option and I did it.
After this all OK...
Bye.

Sorry, I can't see the relationship between Thunderbird (an email program) and web shield (scans web content using http port 80). Web Shield has nothing to do with email, unless you happen to be using web based email (http), such as hotmail or yahoo (free accounts).

Can you please explain your problem?
