What a palaver that was, I can tell you.


If you have a SPI capable router using NAT, and are aware of what
programs (including adware/spyware) are running on your computer, you
don't really need ZoneAlarm or any other additional firewall software
above Microsoft's...

Yeah, both my router and DSL modem have ALL kinds of features I haven't
the slightest clue about!

Zonealarm has been good to me so I stick with it.

Was the information on the ZA/MS interaction sent as an email advisory?
I'm supposed to get those.....
