 Wishing there was a zero star rating for this May 31, 2008

I have used Zone Alarm since it was freeware and until very recently, didn't have a complaint. I ended up with a virus on my network, even with ZA on all four computers. I thought this was nearly impossible with all of the security installed and running 24/7. I switched to full system checks, hoping that it won't happen again. However, this has intensified my dislike for ZA, since running the virus checker took over 9 hours on one computer and is still running on this one, 23:07 hours after I started it. I do not have *that* much info on this computer, it has only scanned 36,000 files in that time!
Everything takes much, much longer than it should. Simply booting the system takes 5-8 minutes to complete, from pushing the button to the desktop loading. Opening IE takes around 30-45 seconds and then you have to wait for the home page to load, which takes a few more seconds, if it doesn't crash first. You never know if a program is loading, you just click and walk away, hoping it will load by the time you grab some water, check the mail, answer the phone and get back to the computer chair.
I'm not exaggerating in the least on any of this, it's utterly ridiculous.
 Zone alarm May 19, 2008
Works great. I did have some of the problems that others did so I just uninstalled it and downloaded the free 14 or 15 day trial then entered my license. It worked fine.
zero, Zero, ZEro, ZERo, ZERO Stars! OMG! April 20, 2008
Wish I could have given it zero stars. This program froze up both of my computers (the laptop and the desktop). I configured and reconfigured again and again, but to no avail. As far as scanning goes, it scanned the laptop (before freezing) but it would not complete a scan on the desktop (then it froze). I did a hard shut down on both computers and then booted them up again, only to freeze after the first ten minutes. This was a waist of my money (and time). Oh, and when I tried to contact ZoneAlarm (they have this funky 'live chat that isn't live chat' thing and then it told me to email them). So, I emailed them and wait, no response. I emailed them a second time and waited 3 maybe 4 days. They gave me a list of things to do and undo and do again. FORGET ABOUT IT!!! Done, done, and done. Just give me my money back and I'll forget I ever met them (but I forgot, I can't get my money back, what a trip). Good Luck to anyone who is BRAVE.
Love This Software April 10, 2008
I've been bogged down and beat up by Norton Anti-Virus, in particular Norton 360. What a resource hog, and tough on older operating systems. Trend Micro which I wanted, would not run on my older machines. Trend Micro has a smaller foot print that Norton 360. All my machines have multi-user environment, that Norton could not be made to understand. For a multi-user environment, this product is tops. I have had no annoying pop ups or slowing up of system. Everything has been good on even my oldest and slowest machines.
THE WORST EVER! April 8, 2008

DON'T BUY IT - POWER HUNGRY - LOCK UPS - MAKES YOUR COMPUTER WORTHLESS - I USED IT ONE DAY AND COULDN'T UNINSTALL IT FAST ENOUGH - I CAN'T SAY ENOUGH BAD THINGS ABOUT IT - WHAT A WASTE OF $50
