**Update on my posts here about 4.6 not updating**Now this is truly odd.. When exiting my Zone Alarm the other day
... no other changes... Avast auto updates the definition files. Twice now!! Yeah! And I tried to see if there's a Program update - it connected! - no update though :'(
It's odd b/c I
swear I terminated ZA while troubleshooting the problem when the 4.6.603 rev installed. And, now it's updating. But only
without ZA runing! Immediately after the install of 4.6, I couldn't see any attempts or alerts from ZA of it attempting to connect and besides my settings allow Avast to behave freely (the new version)
I guess there really are big compatibility issues with it and ZA.****SO COuLD Ya PleASe make a FireWall to complement your WebShield that I can use for webbug, application and port control? That's the only need I have for zone alarm anyway now-a-days. Pretty Please??? I know - you can name it " Avast-A-Wall!!!
Since Winxppro and IE6 sp2 gives better cookie and pop-up control than ZA and the Window's firewall is ok but could be a bit more feature rich and offer more functionality. Now's the time.... When using FireFox, I don't have too many worries... yet.
Cheers.
PS. I'm going to keep ZAPro off for q while and run a bunch of port scanning tests and log some things and see if I can live without it (yah I know it just cost me $$ for the new vs.) and will report her in a few days if I survive....
