JohnH and Tom,

I thought I was dumb as dirt, (and according to my kids, I am getting dumber
by the day) but it looks like their are people dumber than I am.


Thanks for a wonderful Christmas present.

om...
ZoneAlarm Security Suite has done a great job for me, for over a year.
I
have not had a problem with Spyware or a Virus even though I do
download
freeware and trialware from many sites.

I picked this based upon the recommendations of CNET.
"ZoneAlarm Security Suite puts Norton and McAfee to shame with its
easy-to-use triple-layer firewall, antivirus, antispam, and now
antispyware features."

Yeah...PC Magazine has been consistent in their support for ZA , also. I
currently use it as firewall, but not the full security suite with av
protection. I'm still using Norton Antivirus for that. This computer's
about
the be replaced, though. I may go with the all-in-one ZA on the next one.
We'll see.

I'll tell you - I like the Norton over the ZA - I've had connectivity
problems with ZA and it's random - very annoying. I don't know why PC
magazine rates it so high unless they have some geek chained up in a
back room to fix the problems.

Norton works just fine for me - my computer is locked up tighter than
a drum.

That's the way ZA treated me. Glad to hear it wasn't just my total
stupidity.
