Many years ago I used Zone Alarm firewall, but with a number of PC changes it just got side-lined in favour (because it was already there, rather than any other tech reason) of Windows Defender. But following advice in these forums, I decided it may be a good idea to reinstate ZA. I duly downloaded what I thought was the free ZA firewall, but found after installation it seemed to be an entire AV suite, which seemed to require me to disable the resident AVG 8 and MS Defender etc. ( I have uninstalled the ZA)
That is not what I was looking for, I was hoping just to be able to use ZA firewall as an added protection, not the main AV programme (I'm otherwise quite happy with AVG)
So, have I found the wrong programme? if so which (if available) is the stand-alone (free) ZA firewall?
Experience; is something you gain, just after you needed it most.
When faced with two choices, simply toss a coin. It works not because it settles the question for you. But because in that brief moment while the coin is in the air. You suddenly know what you are hoping for.
