I wondered where MailFrontier came from. As I don't use Outlook, I'm going to try removing it.

The free ZoneAlarm is no longer a stand alone installer. When you download ZAFree you are actually getting the installer for ZAISS. You actually install ZAISS, but when you start ZA and it asks you do you want to try the ZAISS version for 15 days for free, and you turn it down, then when ZA starts up all you see is the free version.

Mailfrontier is the spam filter used in ZAISS

I guess that's why the latest update is now up to a whopping 35 megs, or thereabouts.    Too bad they wouldn't give you a choice of installers, if you know that all you want is ZA free.

You also get Kaspersky 6 AV with ZA freeware.

RegCleaner will show Kaspersky6 under "Software" after installing ZA freeware.  After uninstalling ZA, Kaspersky will be gone.

ZA uses way too much RAM,  I think PC Tools Firewall Plus is a better choice (only 4096 kb of RAM).
