Title: Firewall Info & Tests
Post by: CharleyO on September 01, 2004, 08:09:30 PM

While this is not very "in-depth", it does give some good information for beginners of firewall use. No actual test statistics are given. This is just meant as background information ... to beginners from me.

Also, I don't care much for ZA5 (I still use ZA4.5) so don't think I am promoting it by posting this.

CharleyO,
The latest version of ZA (5.1.011.000) is extremely stable and does an excellent job protecting your computer.
My only beef is the fact that they don't recognize Avast! in their AV monitoring function.
Even runs well under SP2.
