Custom install Zonealarm?

I have ZA installed, but it wants me to update it, fair enough I thought...
Until I download the installation file and there's no custom install button, only "quick install". (no, it's definitely not there in faint text)
I searched online about this and a lot of the answers were that if you have it installed already then it will just keep your settings, so I let it start.
It installed:
Microsoft VC++
ZA Security
ZA Antivirus as well as the ZA firewall I wanted.
At the end I got a box saying it was trying to change my antivirus and did I want it to. I clicked no and the whole thing stopped.
I have tried DL from the ZA site and it's the same program with same effect so what to do?
I don't really want to change my firewall if I don't have to but I'm not installing all this other carp either. Please can someone help!

Get rid of Zone Alarm. The built in Windows firewall is perfectly adequate.0

Zonealarm was a great application back in 2006.
For 99% of people the built in Windows firewall is fine. For the few who need more, get Comodo.0
