the only slightly negative thing i've read so far about zonealarm, but one worth mentioning if anyone is having a tough time keeping system resources free... from Scot Finnie, Winmag.com May 18, 2000 -- Vol. 3, No. 19 "For example, I've noticed that ZoneAlarm -- one popular firewall product -- uses a fair chunk of system resources. I complained about this to its makers, ZoneLabs, and they suggested uses not run the ZoneAlarm GUI automatically at startup. You give up some functionality, but over the long haul, it's a worthwhile trade- off. You might want to check into the competing products from NetworkICE, Symantec, and McAfee to see whether their firewalls use fewer system resources."
