zone alarm and xp ???????

[eskippyca]

any one got any thing to tell me or had any problems with this app ,,,just looking to gain knowledge before i try it

[KenKun]

Nop .. not a problem at all ... it worked perfectly

[eskippyca]

file transfers ///chats they all worked ,,,no blockage of anykind

[KenKun]

Ok .. i just can`t get files when using Yahoo messenger .. my sister sends me a file and then i accept .. but it tells me that the other person is behind a firewall (which is not true) and i can`t get the file..
So i tell her to send the file to my email .. maybe there is a kind of solution to this, but i`m not so concerned about it ...

And it will keep blocking the apps from connecting to the internet even when its shut down ... so you have to open it give a permission to your new apps ...

That was my experience with it ..

I have been running ZA Pro version 2.6.362 on XP and have had no problems,recently I upgraded to version 3.0 and have experienced a few "reboots" right in the middle of online gaming(halflife),reading the "application error logs" from the event viewer in XP, I see this

The description for Event ID ( 1 ) in Source ( True Vector Engine ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: .

So I suggest you DON"T use version 3.0 yet,I have gone back to the old version and have not had this problem.

XP Pro and ZA Free with no problems here...

[Ace McGirk]

could everyone give the version number that you use?
I would like to see if the prob I had is happening on version 2.xx

[DutchMaster]

Had little problems with ZA and XP, but they are solved:
ZoneAlarm problem

BTW using version 2.6.362
Overal a good choice for a personal firewall, since you can assign programs right to go through the firewall rather than just blocking ports like other programs do.

seems pretty pro za in xp but i see there are some problems out their im kinda thinking that they are verson related sounds like ver,,2.6 & 3.0 work well for our xp but ver, 2.xxdont help our cause now tell me all are you using ,,,xp pro or xp home makes big difference right

the only problem I have at the moment with it is using yahoo mail through the browser and trying to add an attachment to an email. and there only with opera. Ie works fine. There is a system meltdown and have to either wait half an hour to shut down true vector or reset.
