    I run Zonealarm with AVG anti-virus and AVG anti-spyware with no problems. I have tried other free firewalls but always go back to ZA, easy to use and it doesn't hog PC resources.

  • Ive used ZoneAlarm for years, until recently its been great never any problems at all. Fairly easy to use and setup, seems to block any attempts to access the laptop nicely BUT with the last update for some reason its dragged down my wireless connection speed at times.

    ZoneAlarms ok, I dont really have any experience of other freebies, only paid for Anti Virus Programs and Firewalls by Norton and McAfee.
  • OK i'll go for zone alarm then thanks for everyone's help
