No, it isn't. Sunbelt Firewall can be found here.
The problem with sending people to middleman websites is that they usually have advertising links plastered everywhere, waiting for novices to click on them.

How come you have changed from recommending Comodo Firewall to all and sundry?0 -
I found the latest version now conflicts with Lexmark printers for some unknown reason (nothing major, but im not recommending something I know to conflict with ANYTHING if I can help it). Worked before, but something in their latest release has failed.
Zonealarm as im sure your aware has a multitude of conflicts
Sunbelt I (As yet) dont know of any issues, and is a cracking free firewall:idea:0 -
I haven't suffered any conflicts with the latest version of Zone Alarm 7 that I am using on my laptop. What conflicts are reported with this version?0

The 'actual' Zonealarm forums are flooded with problems
Not sure of specifics to be honest Donnie, I just recall seeing them when I went looking for a friend (And these WERE conflicts, not just wrong settings). To be fair though, there were some odd conflicting programmes id never heard of myself (Though again, im not sure as I cant recall now):idea:0 -

I hate to say this, but as youve had no firewall running, its possible youve been reinfected!
Switch windows firewall on, and rerun Malwarebytes
Eek! Oh well, you live and learn I suppose. Please can you tell me how to switch the windows firewall on - I couldn't find it last night.
