Hi been running zonealarm firewall and nod32 antivirus but have just installed nod32 smart security. Does anyone know if the nod32 firewall is at least as good as zonealarms?

the latest versions of zonealarm are apparently spyware

nod32 is one of the best packages out, zone alarm is pretty poo tbh

make sure you don't run both whatever you do, I'd go with Nod32

I use nod32 av and ZA firewall. The spyware story was about a year ago I think unless there's something lately.

I like ZA as it alerts you what's going out as well as coming in. Example I use is why would the vista disk defrag tool need access to the internet?
Does nod security do that? (I haven't looked as I'm happy with ZA)

No idea what it means, but I like ZA when it warns me ' Active Sync is trying to act like a server '..... 'look its, acting all big and clever'

I will defo look into nod AV or Kaspersky to replace my mcafee AV.

I also run Nod32 with ZoneAlarm with no problems

I use windows firewall.. simple and doesnt use system resources.. I dont have programs I need to block access to internet !

ZA in the past has always been good

Kaspersky or nod32

I use Windows Firewall & NOD32 along with a hardware firewall on my router, never had any problems.

The Kaspersky is on special offer at pc world just now, 29.99 for the top one with 3 certificates, worth it imho

i think it's only nod32 version 3 that has the firewall and antispyware. my version 2.51 and 2.70 was only a antivirus.
