Zone Alarm Help.

Options
I'm repeatedly getting a update from Zone Alarm Service Agent in the form of a Pop up box, and it asks to update now or to remind me later. I click update now and it goes away, only to reappear the following day. What do i need to do please, i have never had any probs with Zone Alarm (free one), and trust it completely.

  • My version does this too. But that's because it's supposed to.

    Try reinstalling Zone Alarm either that or get Kerio.

    click overview>prefrences, at the bottom, where it says "contact with zonelabs", untick the box which says "alert me with a popup before i make contact"
    --OR--
    do manual updates... click overview>prefrences... on the left of where it says "update", click manually and click "update" every few days or every week, whenever you want to check for updates

    This is correct.

    Plus there is slight issue when the auto update feature in that it's so secuire that it stops it's self from working correctly. The updates are normally available every 3/4 months. I normally wait for the reminder and then I'll go and get the update myself anyway. Once running the update you get the option to do a upgrade that then keeps your current settings rather than you having to set the secuirty/firewall up again.
