I am so appreciative and obliged to this company for taking care of me and my machine. I'm a 62 year old man on disability and having said that, i really don't get a lot of pay from the government and Zone-Alarm has been kind enough to make sure that my computer is protected anyway with a free version of anti-virus and firewall. I can relax with peace of mind knowing my computer is this safe from attack.

ZoneAlarm Free Antivirus + Firewall is a comprehensive application that provides basic firewall and antivirus features for the average user. This makes it a very useful program for virtually anyone needing this type of protection. While other programs have more advanced features, ZoneAlarm has successfully combined two of the most important security features for the average user and all for free.

Competiting antivirus applications were quicker and less resource heavy. Still, we found ZoneAlarm Free Antivirus + Firewall to be resource intensive on our system and slowed our boot times down. The speed increase is a result of a redesigned scanning engine.

Full scans will take some time but are still an improvement over older ZoneAlarm programs. Performance of ZoneAlarm Free Antivirus + Firewall is very good. Users can also set it to allow all firewall requests, which is obviously less secure. One surprising feature of ZoneAlarm Free Antivirus + Firewall is " Game Mode," which allows you to temporarily suspend ZoneAlarm's popup notifications for uninterrupted gaming. There is also phishing and spyware protection built in. The firewall will also give users a list of programs and their " Trust Level," which is a good way to quickly glance at suspicious applications. ZoneAlarm Free Antivirus + Firewall's firewall features a log of the different programs that are accessing the internet.

If your looking for a more secure Firewall then try Comodo Internet Security, Online Armor Free or Privatefirewall.īy Anonymous reviewed on October 22, 2009Īverage Firewall, But Better Than Windows Firewall. Where as others in the top 5 free firewalls tend to score at least a 70%.I recommend ZoneAlarm Free for those who want a simple out of the box experience with no customization required. It does offer more security than Windows Firewall as well and at times gets updated a lot.The downside to ZoneAlarm Free is it's security which barely gets over a 10% rating. It offers basic protection and is pretty customizable and simple to use. This I believe will help users find the perfect firewall for them rather than just go by what's most secure.ZoneAlarm Free is a good out of the box firewall. I have updated my Firewall ratings to include 3 factors which are Security, Simplicity and Customizability.
