Unhappy

Decided to upgrade my free Zone Alarm to ZA Pro the other day, and now everything is stuffed

Scoobynet comes up with characters everywhere, Outlook wont open saying there is no system resources, and Kazaa just doesnt open full stop.

Anyone know why?

did you uninstall the previous version first ?

Dunno why people rave about ZoneAlarm. I tried it and there were so many duff alerts that you stop looking at them in the end. Run a seperate firewall box now.

smoothwall corporate - I have purchased the 'home' , but they aren't shipping it as yet, so they sent me the corporate version.

Before that I used the *free* GPL 0.9.9 smoothwall & have set a few of these up for other people now...

Think he means the Pro version, but it can be 'extended' if needed
