Free Zonealaram turned into Free trail version :ohah:
It was also making my internet access sporadic. Giving me access to the internet intermittenttly 
So at last i removed it and come back to the XP firewall :doh:
I find the kerio persoanal firewall extremelly good, its free for a month fully, then goes to a limited capability version but it is still as safe, and I never use any of the advanced features any way. Very low software footprint too!
I never got along with ZoneAlarm when I used it, I always used Sygate Personal Firewall.
ouch! I think when you install zonealarm there is an option to install the free version or trial version. There was a ZoneAlarm update recently which I still haven’t installed… maybe thats what turned it into a trial. Have tried downloading the latest install file?

Sygate Personal Firewall
[/QUOTE]
SPF was bought out by Symantec in 2k5[ot]that’s why it’s still 5.6 and hasnt been updated or a new release brought out for a while[/ot]
Edit:
if you DL the Pro version it does turn into the free version when the trial expires[ot]i think the pro version trial expires after 15 days[/ot]
Another good firewall to consider is Comodo. It’s free too!
Exactly the same thing happend..It upgraded itself and then I saw that message that buy it or it will finish after 15 days.. So i thot wat the hell.. Ended up removing it…:ohah:
I know sygate was bought out by symantec a while ago - i just haven’t followed what happened…
